I sell Original Cell phone batteries. Ebay is flooded with fake batteries. I have purchased a battery from 12 of my competitors so far to see which ones actually sell Original. Mainly because I was positive many Sellers were selling fakes because of the low prices. I had to find out if Sellers really were able to sell an Original battery for almost half the price that I am selling an Original for. I received 10 fakes and 2 Originals. One of the Sellers that sent me an Original had several "Used battery" comments in the feedback.
Most of these fakes comes from Aliexpress and Alibaba. I know where to get them. But I want nothing to do with them. Sadly, the Sellers that sell the fakes gets most of the sales because of their lower prices. Ebay rewards these sellers by giving them higher rankings in the Best Match search because their auctions have more momentum because more people buy the fakes for the lower price thinking they are getting a good deal.
I put together a youtube video and have it in most of my battery auctions. The video proves that my batteries are authentic and also shows people how to detect a fake battery. The more people that knows how to detect a fake, the harder it will be for sellers to sell them. It is impossible for a Seller to prove that the fake they are selling is Original.
