I decided to write this guide after seeing MANY Designer Product listings with ridiculous shipping charges, low starting price, one day listing and a relatively new EBay seller ID.

RED FLAG #1The category I was looking at was Women's Fragrance's and found that there were a huge amount of listings for Chanel Sunglasses and Designer purses.   These all had a listing price of around $50.00 with anywhere between $30 - $48 for shipping!  

RED FLAG #2:   
ONE DAY LISTING.  AVOID ONE DAY LISTING SELLERS.  These listings are often used to sell replicas and keep themselves from being caught because they aren't listed very long.

RED FLAG #3:   EBay ID's with low number of feedback scores.   They more than likely got caught and just opened a new account.

RED FLAG #4:   They were all listed under "GUESS" Woman's Fragrance.   

PLEASE, PLEASE stay away from these people and report them to EBAY.  Eventually they will get caught.    I have NO personal gain from writing this guide.     I am not a regular seller just someone who wants to help an inexperienced shopper NOT get ripped off.      Please bid wisely and do your research on the item, as well as the seller.

Hope this helps at least ONE person !  Thanks for listening !
