I've seen and really like what Diesel makes and I'd like to buy some

wrong)
Time to make a trip South of the Border.
From what I can see, they're $200 (USD) or less.
and it's hard to find places that sell Diesel here in Quebec.
Your fellow Quebecers apparently have more sense than to overpay for a
high class version of the practical workman's serge d'Nimes.
Now, I've seen lots of stuff on eBay at cheap prices like 20$ for shirts
and 7080$ for jeans. And this stuff is supposed to be brand new and
authentic! Now, I know there is a fake market for Diesel, but is it just
all fake?
Since what you get from eBay is not an original consumer purchase from
an authorized dealer, it's not demonstrably authentic.
Or is there something else?
There's a good deal of "preowned product discount" on eBay.
Stolen clothing?
I'd suspect more likely closeouts, factory outlet stuff bought by
people who wanted to eBay it, etc., etc.
If so, it's sad, I don't want to buy stolen clothing.
Well, it's pretty much impossible to prove anything about eBay other
than Marg Whitman gets her cut on the sale.
