Think I've won a fake... how to procede?

[KatoPotato]

Four mins left to auction end, but I've just spoke to my friend who said as the item is from china and uses stock images, I have probably bought a fake product.

Where do I stand? too late to retract bid, am I obliged to pay?

Thankfully I contacted the seller, said I was concerned they might be counterfeit and the item has ended and I'm not the winner!

Oh well done Kato. That's a relief. What was it?

Nikes... I'm a dingus! Its a colourway I've been hunting high and low for, but my friend recognised the photos from other sources.

I feel silly but very relieved!

Oh, I did the same with an Ergo carrier. That was a faff to sort out.

Speaks volumes that they cancelled without fuss!

You should report the item to eBay - they probably won't do anything though
