Authentication Issue - Completely Floored

[desert888]

I sold a brand new pair of Gucci sneakers that were rejected by an authenticator as showing too much wear.  It's completely false.   Literally they have zero wear and were never out of the box.   I'd understand if there was anything remotely questionable.   Nothing!

Has anyone else had this issue.?  I've sold dozens of sneakers with nothing  like this.   And there is no recourse or even way to report the authenticator.

I'm starting to wonder if the Blue Jeans I am wearing are real?

Look out Levi sellers you are next!🤪🤣

When I started selling on eBay in 1998, I sold a lot of vintage Coach, LV, etc.

Sourced from high end estates.

Once buyers started asking: If this is fake, can I return it?

I stopped... the Made In _ ruined it for honorable re-Sellers.

I sell those goods in person, now.

can you post photos of the shoes for us to look at?

you could always list as pick-up only if you're comfortable with that.

One of the eyelets for the shoe laces shows damage that is not stated in the listing and such could cause fail.

@donsdetour Which one? I'm not quite seeing it.

I ended the listing and am going to sell it elsewhere.   eBay is going to get as little of my money as possible from now on.
