A note about retired Pandora:
There
are many sellers claiming to sell Authentic Pandora retired items. 1)
If the price is extremely low, chances are good, it is not authentic. 2)
If a seller has already sold 100+ of the item, there is a good chance
it is not authentic. Pandora stores have a very limited supply of
retired items and they are usually hard to find. One seller is not going
to have several dozen much less 100's of the retired item to sell. 3)
Some sellers trying to convince you their products are authentic may
have a very good feedback rating. How long have they been selling
Pandora on Ebay? Most only a few weeks or months because they get shut
down by Ebay's VERO program that allows the Company to request that
their listings be removed. Some sellers even create multiple selling
accounts as a safeguard in case one of their accounts is terminated.
4)
This is probably the most important for buyers to look out for.
Recently (within the last couple of years), there have been a number of
sellers that sell both Authentic Pandora products as well as knock offs.
As the profit margin for actual authentic Pandora products is very low,
the profit margin for knock off product is very high. Therefore,
sellers will include both types in their listings, convincing buyers
that ALL of their products are authentic. How can you tell? Refer to #1
and #2
ADDED 06/05/2021--Sellers are getting very creative! We have recently had a seller purchase multiple items with the barcoded bag only to send all of the products back after the barcode had been replicated and the fake charm sold WITH a new (fake) barcoded bag. They were busted when their other buying account was discovered linking the two accounts. They were reported to Ebay but are STILL selling products for 50% off retail with the barcoded bag!
