The best version was "when you say this is genuine, how do I know you're telling the truth?" :lol: I used to get that when I sold designer clothes (all genuine, before anyone asks).

Some sellers who sell goods from manufacturers that have restricted stockists claim they have contacts to obtain second hand returns when they are really brand new fakes. :roll: Fakes are still a problem today not just in art, but through all the categories, I don’t know how people get away with it.

I was a member of the Arts Community Watch back in 2004. Week after week we reported the same sellers selling the same fakes for months. I don't know what happened to the rest of the team but many of us gave up in disgust because not much was ever done about it. If Ebay finally did some cleanup work in the end its probably because of complaints by buyers because we sure couldn't wake them up to the fact the category was flooded with fakes. Good article.
