Why are Sellers allowed to sell FAKE BRANDED items on EBay Australia????

Anonymous
Not applicable

Wanted to buy a Fjallraven Kanken backpack and realised that there are a LOT of FAKE items listed here on EBay Australia?? So changed the search criteria to pre-owned and the results came back with two pre-owned and a LOT of NEW listings that were not only FAKE but the sellers were APPARENTLY in AUSTRALIA??? I would not be able to sell a BRANDED item on EBay Australia if it wasn’t AUTHENTIC! Ebay would remove my listing so why do they allow this from FOREIGN sellers??? EBAY, please sort this out ASAP

I think I may have found it. I clicked onto the Help link, entered the word "Community" into the search field, clicked onto the Community content policy from the search result, scrolled down to where it sayss "Visit the eBay Community", and clicked onto the link. I arrived!

 

(It looks just as the boards look in a web browser on my iPhone.)

I was a victim by 2 x Chinese Australian Ebay sellers delivering counterfeit goods. I went to get lengths, even loosing money for the cause to get Ebay to do something about. I even got an official letter from the original manufacturer stating that they were not their product and Ebay would not accept it... because it didn't have the 'company seal'. It seems like you have to do absolutely nothing to establish a fake is genuine but you can never do enough to prove a fake is a fake, go figure? Ebay were not interested in the slightest in doing something about it and I escalated it as much as I could. They are aiding and abetting fraudsters, it makes them lots of money. They are all vile scum, Ebay included for not doing a damn thing about the rampant systemic problem on their platform. I hope they all die of some heinous incurable painful disease. Scum bags

If the sellers were registered in China, eBay Australia has no power to deal with them.

 

There's a good reason why they are called "Teflon Sellers".................
