you're such a strange guy.

your idea is a good one, but does ebay care more about fees than fakes? tough to tell.

haha @ strange!! flattery canadian style
as for does ebay care either way it doesn't matter cause we do so if ebay are init for the fees then they have 1 extra fee to collect from are advert and if they do care then we win that way as well

WHAT YOU RECKON?

ebay doesnt give a shit! it just wants to make $$$$$$$$, and our 'concerns' are only worth 000000000.1% of anything to them! plus all the feckless arses that go '100% seller, top trainers' when they have kicks with soles thicker than herman munsters.

we have a fake sellers list..

http://www.superstardb.com/the-fake-ebay...-1645.html

it has been viewed over 4,000 times by people checking if a sellers name has been on it..

eBay would remove the ad straight away, as when i was advertising this very site when i first launched it i used an eBay ad, as i knew people looking for adidas superstars would find it

Went ok a few times, but they got wise to it and told me off...

They dont give a flying fuck about people selling fakes, as we have tried from day one to get through to them that people DO care, and DONT want fakes.. but they dont give a shit..

All they care, is that they earn shit loads of mulah every second through people listing items.

I think what would probably be better, is if people linked to the fake sellers list we have here, from their normal auctions that they list all the time..

if we get enough people doing it, i bet that would help

10 points for the thought tho pal

'Ere's me twopennth for what it worth (2 groats, possibly)

I think mesel, its a great idea, the more people who know about fake soops the better - I for one didn't know there was so many on the Bay now; I would have probably bought sh*t loads of fake pairs if it wasn't for this site (thanks wikipedia for linking me to it! ). What about emailing the people via ebay who have just purchased a pair of fakes and/or pointing them to this site - now that will p*ssof the sellers when they have to deal with umpteen returns/refunds!

Having slept on it i've added to my idea and will post it later but it basically involves posting on ebay so its not gonna work but ill post it anyways so you can all have a look and maybe its something for the future if ebay get a conscious.As for listing a link whenever we advertise something for sale on ebay ill deffo post a link no worries on that front.ty olstar for the points and for your input.

Fuck the fakers

Just a footnote to what we all hate on here. www.sneakerfreaker.com has an interesting article with the Head of Security at N**e but he gives a great insight into how they can get fakes off our auction sites.

He states that 'its an offence to sell or offer to sell counterfeits' and the penalty is '$200 per item per trademark infringement', so go work it out!

If one of our fake sellers has for sale 100 pairs, each has 5 or 6 logos or unique points of copyright, thats $1200 (700GBP) per shoe! if they have full size runs, they will sue on each shoe!!!!

So it is OUR responsibilty to report this to ebay! Fuck the fakers!!!!

Is i worth trying to collaborate with other sites so that everyone could join in on the action against fakes?

the more people that complain, the more power we have?
