Buying bags on Ebay?
Permalink Closed

Can anyone tell me how me how you buy bags on ebay? Not literally of course, but I have no idea how you can tell if it's a real bag or a fake. What % of retail should you expect to pay? For example, I did a search for the Chloe Paddington, and there were bags ranging from $200 to $1400. Any special tips? TIA!

I'm pretty sure I bought a fake on eBay. It looks amazing though ..it's hard to imagine it's fake, but the price was so low and the girls on the purse forum said it's a fake.

I think in general it's better to just avoid eBay.

I have an MJ and a Coach from ebay and they're both real, but they are both rare styles that weren't knocked off. I'd never buy a paddington or an LV, etc. from ebay.

Yup, basically if it's too good to be true it probably is.
