Dodgy Ficcare listing?

Um, does anybody else think that this clip is NOT a Ficcare ficcarissimo?

I just reported them to e-bay.

Most definitely not. If you look up the style number on that tag (8956) it's the gold lotus maxima. So yeah, super dodgy ficcare listing.

That is REALLY slimy.

I think it is a cheesy fake. You were right to report them

I'm in agreement with everyone here. That is most definitely not a Ficarre. The nerve of some people.

It's really slimy, but in fairness, someone would have to be kind of an idiot not to notice something was arwy. I mean the tag says gold right on it. Nothing about that clip is gold.

White gold? Some people are likely to jump before they look properly, and they need protection by the law - isn't selling something under intentionally misleading advertising known as fraud?

I think everyone should report her listing!

They're also selling this and this. I wonder if they're fake as well.

Oh, they should definitely be reported. I'm not saying they shouldn't. Obviously, sleaziness is bad.

I'm just saying that one should look into what one buys. It took me 20 seconds on google to discover that the tag was mismatched to the product. I'm just saying if someone buys it, they are as much at fault for their misfortune as the person selling. As a buyer it is our responsibility to do the research on what we are getting, and when it's so obviously fraudulent, then it is trivial to figure out. Buyer beware. A clever hoax may be hard to identify, but if you buy something that looks like that that's labeled as two tone gold, without checking it out, then well, you probably deserve it.

White gold for $20? If it's too good to be true it probably is. I guess I get tired of when when people (I'm not saying anyone here, just in general) don't do their research, get screwed, and then won't take any responsibility for their own mistake.
