Recently looked at a Suit of Armour on Ebay for sale by Chinese Antique Dealer, the same Suit of Armour was for sale by 7 other Chinese Antique Dealers all using the same photo, each member had at least 50 poss feedback for selling small cheap items and then seemed to advertise larger more expensive items, always check feedback to see what they have sold to earn the feedback, and if you think winning an Ancient Bronze Sword for 25 pence is a result, check the Postage Cost. A good way to check the item is to type the exact name of the item you are looking at into the Ebay Search Bar and see how many are selling the same item with the same photo. my one and only purchase from China was an antique bronze sword which turned out to be a green painted alloy copy. A genuine dealer from China will have good feedback from UK buyers.
