I think I've been had. That's what I get for using a dang phone to browse when I'm bored. Any bets real or fake?

I won, but I'm fairly certain they are fake, They look too black and the cloth and case...

Live and learn my friend....they're fake.

Contact ebay and see if there are any steps you can take to back out of the purchase.

Yeah sorry, but they're fakes. Hopefully if you paid by Paypal, you can get your money back quickly.

that's a big ol bag of fake ya got right there, sorry.

Why do we seem to have a recent rash of "did I just buy a fake?" threads?!? (sounds like an 'official thread' need!)

hmmm, 2.3 years on the review - I would have expected more. ;)

yeah I would have too, I knew the case and rag were fake, but couldn't tell that well from my phone, sometimes technology isn't all it's cracked up to be. When I got home I knew. I feel so ashamed...

oops..why do people do this? People who sell fake s*** should be dragged out into the street and shot.Sorry to go all Stalin and all but if we wanted fake we would call Pam Anderson or any Reality TV star for that. Sorry its late and Ive been drinking and this crap just pisses me off. Moving on.... how about that local sports team?

If the case and bag are fake, there is a 99.99% possibility that the shades are fake.

I kinda talked around the subject to him. I said I've never seen Hatchets, cloths or cases just like this and could he provide another picture. I'm excited to get the glasses and have 3 other pairs.

He replied back he bought the case and rags at wholesale and asked if I still wanted them

I said I really was interested in glasses but if he didn't feel comfortable sending them on he should let me know.

He said returns were a pain for him so if I was unsure he would refund the money.

I said that would be fine and I hoped we could keep the feedback neutral.

I don't have the money credited yet, but they dont seem to be being jerks.

Hopefully everything works out. I'm sure they don't want to you receiving them and screaming FAKES in the feedback.

Yeah, that's what I've observed in bogus eBay auctions. If you can call them on it, they will duck their tails and run, in hopes of not waking a sleeping giant. The problem is they'll just wait for another buyer who doesn't know any better.

Ya, for sure fakes. Congrats on getting the money back (hopefully). At least you caught it early on instead of opening up a huge box of disappointment.

Well everything worked out. Got the refund.

So out of 2 risks I took this one and a pair ordered from someone with 0 feedback everything worked out.

The guy selling fakes gave me my money back.

The new guy who was super responsive and sent me almost an anoying amount of communication sent me a perfect pair of Brown Hatchets.
