Counterfeit/fake clothes on ebay
I've bought a few things on ebay and although they came with the tag and everything, I'm pretty sure the tops are counterfeit: low-quality, cheap design.
The obvious way to check an item is genuine is probably to check that the model actually exists in a catalogue.
Has anyone had bad experiences or found a good way to distinguish the genuine stuff?

The sellers who sell counterfeit rarely do get neg. feedback though. Trust me. I was reading an article in the newspaper about how much stuff is counterfeit and I know for sure that one top I bought was counterfeit despite having all these tags of authenticity.
It's hard to tell. The only way I've found to check whether the item is genuine is to go through tons of catalogues online or offline but most buyers simply won't bother.

Yes but there are so many sellers out there. Anyone can sell clothes on ebay. Even I've sold genuine stuff on ebay because it didn't fit me/I didn't like it...
There are 100s of people selling counterfeit on ebay and it is quite hard to check that it is actually counterfeit. Like have a look at the belts: loads of Gucci counterfeits but these sellers don't get neg. feedback. I got a CK belt a while ago. When I received it, sure it looked nice but I question the authenticity: it's not even leather
and looks a bit cheap if you look close up and there's something about the logo that doesn't look 100% right. But as I can't be 100% sure...

For "luxury" items, I guess the price can indicate whether it's counterfeit but they could just be out of the warehouse... that's why it's always so difficult to tell. You don't even know if the stuff you're getting comes from the places clothes you would buy on the high street come. They might come from a counterfeit warehouse that specialises in that 
IZZY!
i always buy designer underwear off ebay. armani and hugoboss boxers were quite cheap.good quality, with tags and everything. You just need to buy it from powerseller.I ve never bought any other clothes.
I've bought stuff with tags. It means very little that they have tags. Maybe you were lucky. People don't bother giving neg. feedback because they can't tell if it's counterfeit. Since what you see is that you get...
95% of 'designer' goods are fake. Don't be fooled (especially with those who have 1000+ positive feedback).
2nd hand goods and one off items are far more likely to be genuine. Those who seem to have 15 boxes of CK boxers are very likely to be fake. This is because CK don't distribute their items to resellers on ebay to be sold at dirt cheap prices (they should be pretty strict on this). Another obvious way to tell is the quality of the item e.g poor stitching is often found in counterfeit items.
