Yeah, I can't say for sure if that was there when I purchased or if they've now changed it. I don't remember if I looked at that, but the design is an exact copy of the Tripp NYC brand anyway so they're definitely trying to get away with something here. I've since found and contacted a genuine Tripp reseller here in Australia and they have those exact same photos on their shop page. Needless to say my daughter was pretty upset when these **bleep**py knock offs arrived and weren't the real deal : (

The only revisions that have been applied to the listing since it was created, have been to the quantity of items available.

There have been no changes to the Brand, item specifics, photos etc.

You can check listing revisions, and brand name wasn’t part of revision.  
Sorry. 😞 

This seller's pants are exact copies of the ones sold by Tripp NYC under the Tripp brand, right down to the colours, placement and shape of pockets, chains and eyelets and zip off bottoms. It's a blatant knock off job.

The  Brand is  TRIPP NYC,  Not TRIPP.   Don't know and dont particularly care if TRIPP NYC  has a copyright over any of the design features you find so appealing, or if they have simply knocked them off from the original fashion trend.

May well be a knock off, but that does not make them fake, and they are definitely not counterfeit. as they do not claim to be anything other than the sellers brand,  who knows, they may even come out of the same factory.

That may be so, but you have already stated that there were no tags or emblems, so they are simply a replica of the TRIPPS you are mentioning. 

Look, I know you are disappointed, but the facts are this seller isn’t selling fake tripps, but replica style. Now if it the pants had a tag or emblem that was definitely a fake, then you would be 100% correct.

Buy your child a pair from a reputable seller of the authentic item. Do your online buyer homework first, so you don’t end up in this situation again.

Report the positive negative feedback the seller has left and get it removed, and that’s about it really.  

Make this a hard lesson learnt.  Sorry.  

My son has been wearing Tripp brand pants from Tripp NYC for over 15 years and there is a huge difference in quality with these. It's like any other knockoff where the stitching is not straight, the eyelets aren't properly centred and all the proper tags and logos are missing. I purchased these for my daughter because she wanted to have the same as her big brother but they are definitely inferior to the genuine ones. Anyway I've learned my lesson now to never buy name brand items on eBay but I still think these knockoffs should be taken off the site because others will be tricked into thinking they're genuine as I was.

Then the title should say replica, not just have the brand name Tripp in it. If eBay is OK with this then they are allowing unscrupulous sellers to trick buyers into thinking their products are something they're not.

Would they allow a seller to advertise a "replica" handbag with Prada or Gucci in the title ?  Or replica sunglasses with Ray Ban in the title if they weren't Ray Ban? I don't see how this is any different.
