Fakes everywhere

[Josh Crutchley]

This is a small sample of what's on eBay right now. Ebay needs to step up and remove this crap. https://www.ebay.com/itm/124981169045?h ... 4&LH_BIN=1

I have seen more than one Magnitude fake listed as an actual Spyderco product.

Dear Dnwrghtsr:

Welcome to the Spyderco Forum.

Stay safe,

I've never used eBay. Just curious though with all of the billions of items on eBay how eBay is supposed to know they're fake? Can and eBay customer report fake Spyderco's?

A customer can report them, but it is not likely to receive action. As you noted, with the billions of items they deal with, they are unlikely to be experts on any given one. But human nature is pretty consistant, so an individual reporting another is likely to be dismissed as a feud between rival sellers. Now when Spyderco reports that a given listing claiming to be one of their products is a fake, eBay is more likely to take action.

I’ve reported scores for them for what it’s worth. Posting them here does no good if you have not also gone through the report function at Ebay. Enough complaints and a human will take a look at the item.

I report everyone I see.

Thank you! Hopefully others are reporting as well. It can get tedious, but more hands make lighter work.
