ghd straightners

[poolianjoole]

Hi,

A freind of mine has recently been buying straightners from:-

www. fancyghd. com

He reckons their real and he`s currently getting away selling them on ebay, but they must be f a k e s, what do you guys reckon?

If they are wont he be vero`d soon?

Thanks

Looks pricey to me! I can go to my local Ulta or WallMart store and buy the same for a fraction of those.

deffo ⊗⊗⊗⊗

the biggest giveaway is the western union sign

you get vero regardless if its real or not - your only hope is to fight the vero if its real and wait till its safe to relist again

Difficult item to list in the UK. Would not touch it because of the chance of having the listing taken down.

Difficult item to sell anywhere.
GHD is on the war path big time,if you are not an authorized stockist.
They are history sooner or later,even if they are real (which I highly doubt).

[poolianjoole]

I told him they were f a k e, but nope he wouldnt have non of it, he`s sold 9 now and totally new to ebay so dont believe he will be taken down. I KNOW!!!

I told him to read some of the posts on his site.

What vero items are they not bothered on then? n i k e / a b e r c r o m b i e, because seems to be loads on there?

[GreenBean]

Nope, both that you mentioned can and are taken down in the UK

[poolianjoole]

hey greenbean,

are there any that you can get away? :D

[GreenBean]

Cortex, wth are you on about?

Those are ⊗⊗⊗⊗.

I listed a few chi's about a month ago.

AFTER the auction closed, the Vero cops deleted the listings.. good thing the folks already paid! they got their item, but couldnt leave feedback.. i didnt care i got paid:D

Nice hitch nice,

So have you got any advice on items that they aint so strict on?

[GreenBean]

pooli,
Cracks me up when users say 'their friend' is selling items & wants to know what is good to sell. We don't really mind if it is YOU. LOL.
Read this thread http://www.aspkin.com/forums/ebay-di...wholesale.html
Although you might not be doing a high volume of sales, you do your own research & find what item(s) will work.

Sure.. Non Vero, low cost items You'll never go wrong

[poolianjoole]

not that you will believe me, but I really do swear it is a friend, at those prices I would never buy from there no way, but he was insisting that they were original.

Thought it was to good to be true....

lots of you, say low cost items... any of you ever tried liquidation . com?

or light in the box . com or am i going down the totally wrong line? really need to get selling.

Liquidation.com is often a disappointment. At least that was my experience in the past. After several really crappy deliveries of items allegedly in quite good condition (salvage class in reality), I pretty much turned my back to them a few years ago. Maybe it's different now. Back then, only a few orders were actually near what they claimed to be. And the shipping prices are a "GOTCHA!"

Theyre definitely ⊗⊗⊗⊗. They do make high quality ⊗⊗⊗⊗ of these though. The price is a dead giveaway. The western union doesnt mean anything. I would accept WU as a payment option if I owned a website. The more options, the better.

But anyways, there are ways to list the GHD brand, and CHI brand on eBay with a SLIM chance of getting pulled. How? You'll have to figure it out

[ebay]

western union on someones website does not mean anything ?

it a dead giveaway with western union has no protection for the buyer !!!

and which idiot would pay like $20 extra to send by western union just to make it easier for the seller

[Burst]

Everyone knows the insecurities with WU. WU even tells you while on hold or using their website.

1) Stay away from GHD. Your customers will know it's a ⊗⊗⊗⊗ if they do a quick google. The hologram is an easy fast way to tell. Unhappy customers = accounts going bub-bye & inconveniencing you.
2) If you're going to buy from china, find a supplier that uses paypal. They know that if they screw you they will have it reversed so they are bound to be more honest with you about what is and isn't replicas & if it's quality or crap.

Things have changed over the past several months.

6 months to a year ago, it was very uncommon to have a supplier use paypal.. if they did use paypal it wouldnt last long.

Now, almost all of the legit suppliers use paypal.

You know what I just saw today.. "Brand Cigarettes" haha i never saw those on one of the suppliers sites until today
