Hiii eBay I’m an eBay sneaker seller and I’m happy with what y’all have done with the platform, but I also wish the fees for selling streetwear were lower
Lol it’ll only make reselling more prominent. The prices determined by supply and demand. Call up Nike and Travis Scott if you want your pairs to be cheaper.
I really hope they get rid of that eBay tape because it might be like Nike where people target the packages since they know valuable shoes are inside. I’ve had way to many stolen SNKRS app sneakers.
Thanks for this video! I was super curious as well. This makes me feel a lot safer buying from sellers who don’t have THOUsands of reviews or like 99.9% feedback. another plus is that you don’t always have to pay the shipping and processing fees that stockx and goat have
Would’ve liked to see a vintage or an older Jordan retro purchased in a conditional state. Would’ve liked to see how eBay handled them during authenticity check and see if it came back as shown on the original listing. I heard once the shoes are purchased, eBay cuts communication between the buyer and seller?
I've been purchasing all my sneakers from eBay for almost the last year. I'm pumped to have this new authenticity service. i just hope shipping is still as fast as it has been in the past.
been using Ebay for sneakers for years. It's great for vintage stuff that people don't appreciate enough but it's not great for hype shit. I've never been duped with a fake ever.
Shiid I've literally bought and sold hundreds of sneakers on ebay, only got burned once (metallic 5s) and that was before I knew fakes were a thing (early 2000s)
Same man, eBay since '06 and only recently started buying shoes this year (Yeezys). The authentication is the reason I went to eBay for resale. I like kicks but don't get into the waiting and lottery thing. First pair I got were the Cloud White 350s and they were ✅ Plenty of legit sellers (that's the key) over the last 15 years. Bought everything from new game systems, to trading cards, athletic apparel, and more.
thanks for coming out with this video! good perspective on buying from ebay, i see ebay sneakers comin back to mainstream now that they are workin with sneakercon
I've purchased so many great sneakers on EBay . Many sellers provide free shipping and I have never been unsatisfied. StockX are crooks. Including the amount you were overcharged by the seller added to all their fees you could buy another pair of sneakers. Also a good % of sellers on EBay allow returns . StockX & Goat return policies are god awful and they gauge you again for the trouble
I live in a country where there are copies of copies. The only authentic shoes I got were from my visit to KSA with limited colour ways. No way to tell if I'm holding an original or a copy.
Steven Johnson I just buy ones on eBay from my shoespot store and I just putting on my feet inside and the shoes decreased instantly. The store block men and eBay not allow me to return the shoes because the shoes is authentic but is visual obviously is damage I pay 115. I feel robbed. Unbelievable.
I was never worried about ebay. Locally its hard to find a store with size 14 and 15 shoes for me. China dont even bother making fakes past size 13 so that is another plus for me.
In my opinion eBay is only good for used kicks, most ds stuff is more money than stockx or the same as stockx after the fees, but with stockx you get a safer authentication service. I’ve gotten some killer deals on used kicks though!
as an ebay seller, when you list an item, ebay actually recommends that you use someone else's picture. You have to manually bypass this to post your own pictures. Could be lazy/ignorant sellers. I agree though, i always post my own pictures so people know i have them in hand
Yup, very common. There were twenty with the same picture when I bought my last pair of jordan 11s. It’s the seller reviews and sales numbers you want to focus on.
Been buying and selling on ebay since maybe 2003. And gym shoes have been a big part of it. I only buy from established sellers with positive feedback. Are there some turds? Hell yeah. I've had issues with fakes. 5 times to be exact. But I have had hundreds (literally) of pleasant transactions. I've bought, new, shoes, brand new older releases and even slightly used shoes. I choose ebay over stockx and goat. And if there is ever a problem paypal is there to back you up. Ebay is the way to go. But don't ever buy from sellers with little to no feedback or sellers with negative feedback. Read reviews. And ask questions.
I bought probably over a hundred pairs over the years on ebay and I'm talking since the early 2000's as well, never got a single fake. The secret is in the sauce, do business with 100% feedback only and make sure your seller has hundreds or thousands of sale history and you'll never get a fake. On the other hand you almost deserve it when you buy from someone with 0 feedback and the account is 1 month old or located in a sketchy country.
Ebay can be great for buying sneekers, Even before the Authenticity Gurantee, with ebay you have Buyer Protection, so if you bought a sneaker listed as Genuine and its apoarant that it is fake then you wilk get your money back, I purchased lightly used Pair of Yeezy 350 Creams for £140 fully genuine.
With the authentic check and paypal protection there's no reason to worry about 0 feedback sellers. Worst case is you're out of the money for 1-2 weeks.
I don’t see how you could have that many sneaker “experts” once they scale up. There’s just no way there’s enough people that skilled. Eventually they’ll have to start training employees who don’t really care that much, who will authenticate shoes that seem “good enough” and send em on their way. Maybe I’m wrong, but I feel like that’d happen with eBay
I just can’t figure out why anyone would buy from eBay over another resell platform. Just another option (that isn’t cheaper, is harder to search, and is way shadier), or...?
How do you check which sneakers from EBay go through the eBay authentication?? Do you have to pay extra for that service? I’m from the UK and can’t find the blue verification tick on listings.....
I’m thinking about buying shoes from eBay, is it worth buying for them till this day? I’m asking because I’m getting mixed reviews on the authenticity of eBay.
This whole authentication process Ebay, StockX and Goat would be better if they include the name of the person who authenticates because sometimes they let in fakes .. howcome they don't include the name of the authenticator?
SETH! I bought the smoke grey jordan 1’s off snkrs and last week I sold them as DS. eBay said they could not authenticate my shoes, asked no questions, asked for any details, nothing. Case open, refund, I get my shoes sent back to me, case closed. Is this right?
I am from India and I loveee sneakers. We unfortunately do not easily get all the sneakers here without paying a hefty price for that. I recently got to fulfill two of my dream shoes, Ultraboost 19 and Human Race NMDs. I still dream and want to own a pair of yeezys but its too damn costly here. I wish I could've got those yeezys for that price. :(
So I bought dark mochas on Jan 1. It still says package not received. shipping label has been created but I can’t even message the people because eBay restricts it when you are doing the authenticity guarantee. It’s been two weeks almost!!! I’m pissed man I can’t get through to eBay. Any suggestions
Sneaker game on point, Seth! Hyped you’re a fan of our new Authenticity Guarantee.

The Yeezys said Sunflower instead of Safflower when you scanned it.
“Homemade material included” YZY s (pink /black)
Yo! That “not taken down ad” is clever. I can see how ppl can get lured in by that. Gotta watch out for these scammers
I managed to get a legit pair of air Jordan 1 fearless shoes for £155! Bargain
I live in a country where there are copies of copies.
The only authentic shoes I got were from my visit to KSA with limited colour ways.
No way to tell if I'm holding an original or a copy.
The one weird thing about buying on eBay is that it works exactly like eBay has always worked with addresses lol
I’ve bought about 4 pairs of shoes from eBay recently (all over $300 except 1) great deals and delivery have been ridiculously fast

For sizing can't you just put in your size in the search bar above, takes out a lot of wasted time checking sizing
Yes, you can filter the search which makes shopping a lot easier.

Hello Seth, nice video. Do you know they are doing the same on eBay Uk or Eu?
This video just made me pull the trigger on some court purple 1s
the first shoe on Ebay I saw with the Authenticity Guarantee label was called "men kanye 350 boost shoe sneaker black hype size 10 lifestyle"
I got scammed on ebay a few weeks ago for fake yeezys but I got my money back. Ebay sucks with this stuff.
Yo Seth awesome video! What is the flannel you are wearing? Looks super comfy
I'm tryna figure that out too
OK I am really confused because I’m seeing the shoes selling for less than 200 and it’s shown guaranteed real did they change something?
For those authentication tags on the sneaker, is it plastic and if so, does eBay have a recycling program where we could send it back to them?
I believe Seth Fowler deserves more subs
Copped a pair of fragment 3’s on EBay for $200 straight up, passed authenticity, resold on StockX for $380, all was legit
