It's a fake, can I sell it with full disclosure?

I bought a "Hermes" fake wallet at a garage sale very inexpensively. Its a brand new, nice looking wallet. Can I sell it on ebay with full disclosure, or does this go against ebay/ethical rules?

If you value your account here, Don't list it. You can not sell fakes or reproductions here. Good Luck to you.

Can NOT be sold here or anywhere else.

 

Per ebay rulesL

If an item has a company's name or logo on it, but wasn't made or endorsed by the company, it's not allowed on eBay.

The sale of any counterfeit item is illegal. A Federal crime which can carry fines of up to $250,000 per sale.

 

And please do not donate it. It just puts it back into the public domain.

Use it or destroy it.

Worse than being against ebay and/or ethics, the sale of counterfeit goods is a violation of federal trademark law and can get you into BIG trouble with the feds.
