Dear Ebay Community members,

Have you ever bidded for branded Eyeglasses?? Won the bid at unbelievably low price. Got the frames delivered at your place and later found out that they are FAKE!! Felt ripped off from you money. Felt Cheated! Many a times, one does not even realise that he/she has been cheated and by the time he/she does, its too late.

At times the embarrassment can be even more, when you are out on a party with friends showing off your Branded eyeglasses to your friends and boasting about the cool deal you got over Ebay. And that's when a smart-ass friend points out that You been fooled online ๐Ÿ˜ž

Its unfortunate to see many fake eyeglasses being sold on Ebay this days. So that's precisely Why I am writing a 5 step guidelines to help you spot an ORIGINAL piece:

1] DOCUMENTS: Every TAG HEUER eyeglasses/sunglasses comes with a 2 years of International Guarantee valid in 140 countries.The seller should be able to provide you with an International guarantee card and International guarantee booklet. If the seller can not provide this, Its obvious he is selling a fake. Dont believe in any of the excuses. Save your money!

2] PRICE: An authentic TAG HEUER Eyeglass can never cost below RS. 12000/-. If someone is offering you at a ridiculous cheap price such as 2k-5k.Its IMPOSSIBLE!You are being sold China made cheap duplicate eyeglasses which are available for Rs. 350/- to 500/- at the local markets. So basically you are paying 300% more for a fake frame! TAG HEUER is an international brand. Each of its eyeglass goes throw a Quality check. Superior material is used in its France based manufacturing plant. Lots of Research and Development, design and ergonomics principles are involved. Eye care is very essential so dont hurt your health buying a fake. If you can not afford luxury brands, PLEASE rather buy a domestic brand. Counterfiet/fake products can be hazardous to your eyes because of the cheap toxic material usage.

3] ASK: Always ask the sellers for the model number and color code. You can cross check the model number on this TAG HEUER online catalogue:http://bit.ly/7bvkZp A fake seller can't provide it and even if he does. make sure the same number is printed on the arms of the eyeglasses. Also ask him for authenticity and originality. Most fake sellers make excuses like this is factory overstock, surplus stock sale, etc. They are lying, don't trust them. TAG HEUER eyeglassess are manufactured in France only!

4] KEYWORD MANIPULATION: This is a bit technical but can be helpful in finding an original. When you search using the term 'TAG HEUER EYEGLASSES' You will find many listings. Now observe the description name, The seller who are selling the fakes would use terms like 'TAG EYEGLASSES HEUER FRAMES...' Whereas the authentic seller would have the description name 'TAG HEUER EYEGLASSES..'. Only authentic sellers can use the term TAG HEUER together, whereas a fake seller cant use those terms together because it might land him in copyright issues. So he manipulates the keyword and places TAG and HEUER in the same description line but not along!

5] ACCOMPANIED ACCESSORY: Every TAG HEUER eyeglass purchase comes with an
a. ORIGINAL TAG HEUER Box
b. ORIGINAL TAG HEUER EYEWEAR CARRY CASE.
c.TAG HEUER INTERNATIONAL GUARANTEE CARD
d. TAG HEUER INTERNATIONAL GUARANTEE BOOKLET Refer to this picture:http://bit.ly/7080t7

If you are not getting this in your purchase. you are being fooled. The FAKE eyeglasses are being sold with cheap looking carry cases like : http://bit.ly/7GbFnT,http://bit.ly/5OKVnu,http://bit.ly/4ZllYb

So If you see such cases in listings or get such case delivered in your purchase. Its a Fake!

If you have been cheated before, You can report the Seller to Ebay and claim your money back. Be aware of your rights.

I am an Authorised TAG HEUER dealer. I hope this tips could be of help for you. If you have any further queries feel free to contact me.

I hope my guidelines were helpful to you. Just do me a favour, whenever you happen to find fake items being listed on Ebay, Just Report them to ebay. Every listing has a 'Report Item' link given next to it.

Lets keep our Ebay free from fraud sellers and fake items ๐Ÿ™‚

Hello Faransqi.

Ray Ban Aviator is a very popular design worldwide and thus has lots of fake copies as well.

Just follow this link : http://www.ray-ban.com/india/. Click on the store locator and You will find an authorised dealer in your city. You can walk in to the showroom and cross-check the authenticity.

Ray Ban glasses come with a Leather Casing. As you have been provided a hard case. That is a bit fishy. Fake Ray Ban's sell for 500-600 Rs in local markets!!

If you find out its a FAKE. You can report it to Ebay and Paisapay. This will help you get all your money back. Also will save future buyers from such fraud sellers ๐Ÿ™‚

I hope that I was able to solve your query ๐Ÿ™‚

Hi,

There are some fake bidders. How do we deal with them? Can we complain to ebay or take some action against those bidders. I wonder if the fake bidders and the sellers are same. Have a look at this bidding:

Member Id: v***0 ( 0 ) New eBay Member (less than 30 days) Rs. 15,000.00
20-Jun-2010 13:29:29 IST

Member Id: n***a ( 0 ) New eBay Member (less than 30 days) Rs. 3,750.00
20-Jun-2010 12:42:10 IST

Can any fool who is bidding will bid so high?

Regards,

Sunil
