Misleading eBay description
Hi,
Wasn’t sure which thread to put this in. Anyone know how to best report misleading listings on eBay? I’ve had a look and there doesn’t seem to be any option for misleading descriptions, I’ve sent a message to the seller. They are asking £69 for a right facing broken Royal Tank Regiment collar Badge, another one not broken is on eBay at £12.50, see link https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Royal-Tan...bf4a%7Ciid%3A1 |

eBay couldn’t care less. He can say whatever he likes and charge whatever he likes. Just note his user name, never buy from him and forget about it.

I too would not buy from him for the reason that he does not know what he's talking about and does not care. Recently he had a standard WW2 US Army officers cap badge with the cloud above the eagle listed as a rare 1st American Squadron Home Guard cap badge. I sent him a note with pictures to show that his listing was incorrect. Never heard back and never saw him change it.

Easy to spot by the garish backcloth! - there's another (neighbouring) seller with the same backcloth.
They do have some good basic badges - but at ridiculous prices. Otherwise they get misidentified or they are obvious fakes. |
