Awkward Scrapper Situation

So on ebay I found some great deals on pins. I thought they looked legit enough so I Decided to hit the BIN. The seller had one negative in 12 months so I figured it was pretty safe.


Unfortunately I looked at all the Pinpics scrapper warnings AFTER I pressed BIN. Looking at all of them, I realized that EVERY PIN I BOUGHT is a scrapper or counterfeit of some type. I haven't actually paid yet and I do not want to

I also noticed that the sellers has a tiny little disclaimer saying "I don't guarantee every pin is authentic because I trade them at the park" Can they get away with this?!

I really don't want to give roughly $50 of my money to these people only to fight through ebay just to get it back. What do I do?

Id just pop the seller a quick message explaining the situation. Just let them know you jumped the gun a little too quick, and didn't know that there could be fakes included in the lot

AND let them know that you will be likely to give them a negative rating if any counterfeit pins show up.

...and report him to Ebay for selling counterfeit products

Alrighty so I contacted the seller and they cancelled three of the 5 transactions. They say that the two non cancelled ones are authentic because they did purchase them at WDW themselves... so I guess I'll believe it for now! It was kind of nice since they were so understanding C:

jjgasman that is the coolest Maelstrom pin I have ever seen!!!

Yup, and if the pins are fake, ebay buyer protection has got you covered if they won't refund

Yes, now if I could only find it!

I did this exact same thing. I bought 5 pins I needed to complete a set, then thought "wait... why was he selling those so cheap, and how did he get 8 of each one?" I came here and asked, and people had been finding scrappers. I sent the seller an e-mail asking him if he could verify that they were authentic. I let him know that if they weren't, I would be sending them back and asking for a refund, so he could save some time and let me know up front. He responded that he couldn't guarantee and offered to cancel the sales. It was pretty pain-free.
