Hey all,

I don’t understand why some people get away with selling what is clearly fake Louis Vuitton handbags on ebay and their items are never taken down? Whereas I can guarantee that the LV handbag I listed on ebay is authentic and yet it is still removed.

I put the title as:

Authentic Louis Vuitton Monogram Mini Lin

and also I wrote my own description of the bag, stating that I got it as a gift for 07xmas and is now needing the money to save up.

Has anyone ever listed an authentic bag on ebay and got it removed? If you had, what did you do? I have wrote quite a mean letter to ebay and asking for my item to be re-listed with no extra charge. Still waiting for their reply now.

Thanks guys.

Sometimes listings get removed by accident, or a glitch in the ebay system, I hope your letter wasn’t too mean. Wait it out, or try to relist, obviously if it wasn’t a techinical error, than one of their watchers reported your listing.
Ebay has gotten very difficult to deal with lately. Between scam seller and buyers. so good luck, I just wanted to let you know that I hav seen listings removed by mistake, and they will relist it for you with no fees.

How do you know for sure that your bag is real…I mean it was however a gift. Sometimes they imput the serial Numbers into the Louis Vuitton database. And if it’s not listed there that it is indeed a fake.
And yes people do put fake Louis Vuitton on Ebay and get away with it because they don’t use the word “Authentic”. That’s why it isn’t a good idea to buy a purse on ebay beacause of replica’s. I only buy Louis Vuitton from Boutiques, Sak’s Fifth Avenue, and E-Luxury for that reason.
