If a buyer opens a PayPal dispute stating the item received is a ⊗⊗⊗⊗, you WILL have a problem. Typically, they will contact the seller and ask for distributor information, invoices, receipts, etc.
The buyer does not have to prove the item is a ⊗⊗⊗⊗, the SELLER has to prove that it is real. The exception to this would be a buyer with a history of such disputes. And even then, they sometimes will side with the buyer.
And here is the kicker: if they side with the buyer you will NOT receive the merchandise back. Here is section 10 of the PayPal user agreement: If you sell to a buyer and the buyer files a Significantly Not as Described (SNAD) Claim, you will generally be required to accept the item back and refund the buyer the full purchase price plus original shipping costs. You will not receive a refund on your PayPal fees. If you lose a SNAD Claim because the item you sold is counterfeit, you will be required to provide a full refund to the buyer and you will not receive the item back (it will be destroyed).
All the buyer has to do is "certify" that they destroyed the item.
Of course, at that point, your PayPal and eBay accounts are done for.
Where did anyone get the idea that the buyer has to PROVE the item is ⊗⊗⊗⊗???
