Hi
Did you contact the seller to ask about it? Like I stated the other day, it is important to contact the seller before posting here to avoid situations like we've had this week. Thanks

No I did not...I will try to...but if somebody already has let me know...

Another option, if you feel the seller is intentionally deceiving the buyer, at the bottom of every eBay auction page there is a "report this item" tab. Click it, choose the appropriate violation and report the item, be it fake, excessive shipping, suspected spamming or whatever. eBay will usually take care of it and if multiple people report the item as a fake, I'm pretty sure something will get done. Like Brett said, contact the seller first, more often than not they are clueless to the situation & willing to fix the problem.

Here is another one I think???ebay Item # 140241373982

It's amazing how one thread is probably going to kill this forum...

i cant believe that people have but this glove up to 75 dollars even though the seller was told it was a fake. People just dont pay attention.

What if the seller has a Willson A2000 or a Wislon A2000 for sale. One of us asks if it's a fake, and the seller says no?

Here is an example of an honest seller, uninformed, trying to do the right thing. Maybe. At least he or she made a change in the listing and acknowledged that this was a fake. And now, I suppose .... "caveat emptor."

I would like to think that I, if I were in this seller's place, would contact each bidder and inform them individually that this was a fake A2000, and be understanding if the bidder wished to remove his or her bid.


And now, from the other side of things ... I feel a bit of sympathy for uninformed sellers like this one. Not everyone is an expert on everything. A few years ago I might have come across a Dazzy Vance, mumbled "Who the heck?" to myself, and tossed it aside. Now, I still am learning and don't know nearly as much about gloves as I want to, and I see where it would be easy for an uninformed seller to list an "A2000" that looks more like an RBG36, with no intention of defrauding buyers at all.
