I bought some fake mac shadows and blushes today BUT there really gooos quality! HAs anyone bouhgt FAKES and still use them because of there good quality
i just bought 24 "fake" mac shadows from ebay i knew they were fake when i bought them but i didnt care the color pay off is still great anyways i was wondering if anyone knows how to depott them?? i have tried with one and it jus cracked mine also is raised at the top so u cant pot put the lid and it has a lil mirror and eye wond on the bottom so if anyone knows howodepott them please PLEASE write me a message & let me know or post a video thank u
How are you meant to tell when you just buy the refills? Is there anything to look for there? I just bought a refill i hope its genuine though reading feedback from others a few said she sells genuine mac.
to be honest, as long as its good quality, and even if your doing a tutorial, no ones really going to look at, the small details like, "take this red shadow" then quickly flash the eyeshadow, no ones really going to pause it.
i have ANOTHER question.....you say that you bought from someone who had lots of feedback, lots as in how many? the person i am interested in buying from has sold over 4000 items and her rating is 97.5% is that enough to trust her?
i have a question!!!!! how can i figure out its a fake BEFORE i buy it? because if i am just looking at a picture they posted, couldnt they have just posted a picture of the REAL one but send the fake one? the person i am (hoping) to buy from on ebay is shannonalbert30......can someone give me some advice as to if they think her mac eyeshadows are real or fake
There's still ALOT of fakes on Ebay. I try to report the sellers whenever I see em, but there is just too many... I see lots of people buying and bidding on these so called '' Authentic'' MAC products. THEY ARE NOT REAL MAC!!! ....
Guideline: If the product you are selling bears the name or logo of a company, but it wasn't made or endorsed by that company, don't list it on eBay.

Counterfeits, unauthorized replicas, unauthorized items (such as counterfeit watches, handbags, or other accessories) or unauthorized copies (such as copies of software programs, video games, music albums, movies, television programs, or photographs) are not permitted on eBay. Unauthorized copies include (but are not limited to) copies that are pirated, duplicated, backed-up or bootlegged. It is illegal to sell unauthorized copies of media.
I'm very worried, I bid on 3 of the "MAC" cream eyeshadow palettes (wholesale) and instantly won it, and 2 hours later I was doing some search on those and found out their fakes!! The seller is waiting for me to pay the items but I sent him an email telling I didn't want to buy them because it was suppose to be authentic MAC and it isn't. What should I do? :-(
I have noticed that many people from China and Thiland with ZERO feedback are selling in lots of "18" "24" etc. eyeshadows with the starting bid for cheap and I feel as though they are scammers. I have reported this to ebay twice but they are still being listed. BEWARE!!!!!!!!! Buy from America only!
Actually buying from America doesn't even solve the problem anymore. Search "mac palette" on ebay and you'll find loads of fakes sold by buyers in the States. I never realized what they were before watching debstan's videos on fake palettes.
I just ordered a few eyeshadows from ebay ... I hope they are fake ... now I'm nervous but glad I know NOW than later on after I've spent more money. Thank you for making this video!!!!
hEY I JUST SAW YOUR VIDEO AND THE SAME THING HAPPEN TO ME. I ACUTALLY GOT THE SAME ONES YOU GOT. I COULDNT BELIEVE IT. SORRY TO HEAR THAT I GUESS WE HAVE TO LEARN OUR LESSON. :) QUESTION WHY DO YOU PAY SO MUCH FOR EYESHADOWS IS THAT WHAT THEY CHARGE YOU OVER THERE?
hi.. i know we have to learn the hard way :( anyway yes cosmetics here are 3x more in price compared to US. i dont really know why perhaps tax? hehe thanks for watching.
this happened to me and i reported them to paypal. Paypal then asked me for a letter from an unbiased third party saying it was fake. The letter had to be in letter head and written by someone who was a dealer or had an expertise in this area. I had no idea how to get this so I just made a letter up myself and i made a letter head and gave an email address and phone number. I even sent pictures of the fake mac and ebay still denied my claim. paypal sux
oh i am sorry to hear about it.. i didnt complain because i know that paypal will not back it up or refund it and i told the seller and she said she didn't know then 2 days later she removed all her listings.. :( hope we dont fall into this kind of scam again..
I wish i had watched this video a couple of months ago, cause i bought a lot of eyeshadows from ebay and have just discovered they are 100% FAKE. The seller was removed as soon as i payed and ebay was no help when i queried this. Part of me wants to throw them out, in case they're not safe. But part of me wants to use them as the colours are gorgeous and they are lovely to use. So will now only buy from Mac website/shop. I really advise people to do the same
Hello to everyone that decides to use the fake Mac anyway you should know that the countries where they make those fakes (China, Tawain, etc.) use non-cosmetic grade ingredients that may contain things like lead and other toxins. Those countries don't have to abide by the same FDA standards as the US. Sad and dangerous but true. I would throw that crap away.
I recently bought a face e/s too, thank God its cheap and I only bought two so I don't feel too sad. When I tried the e/s, after 1-3 hours it creased, that's how I know its freakin fake. I still don't know how to tell the difference if you buy it online, from now on I'm just gonna buy it from original store/trusted seller.
i ordered a bunch of it and was so excited when my package came. imagine my sadness when i discovered it all to be fake! i wrote the user and confronted him about it, he insisted it was real. but there's no way that is the case. i decided to keep them, however, because they actually go on more vibrantly than some mac(which i really hate to admit, but it's true:)).
hi.. i haven't tried it. i watched some other vids and they all said that it's not that bad.. personally, every time i see that e/s i get sad haha so i don't use it. i think it is safe BUT the quality will not be as good as MAC. did you accidentally bought fake ones on ebay too??
how much did you buy it? i told my seller to remove all other mac listing in her account or else i'll make some actions and report her.. if you spent quite some money and you better report it to ebay and refund your money.
I just bought 3 fake mac lipsticks on ebay. She had them listed as 100% authentic mac. She said she'd give me a refund... what can we do about these fake mac sellers?
