I buy lots of DVD's off EBAY and I have had the misfortune of purchasing the odd fake one!
From the experience that I have had over the past year I am going to give you tips on spotting untrustworthy sellers
This can also be applied to buying CDs.
Feedback:
Always check the feedback as people usually leave neutral or negative feedback expressing their disapointment! Although don't judge a seller for a feedback score of slightly below 100% as it doesn't necessarily mean that they are selling fakes
Description:
Alot of sellers in the description say that they are sending the DVD in a plastic wallet to .. "save postage". This is usually a sign that it is a fake especially if there is no artwork to come with it! It is just an easier way for the seller to sell these fakes with little effort!
Picture:
Make sure that the picture is of the item especially if the seller has a bad rating.
Price:
If the price is ridiculously low then you may think it is a bargain however this usually a sign that the disc may be a copy so it is usually worth paying slightly more so that you are not disapointed.
If you use a mixture of all the hints that I have given then you should be able to avoid buying fake DVDs and CDs.
Make sure that if you have bought a fake that you leave feedback that reflects this so that others will not be disapointed.
