Fake Flash Drive Seller Trick

This seller, who lists 64GB flash drive for only $14.99 (attractive price, isn't it?), changes the item location from Hong Kong to United State (USA), sold 800+ in less than 9 days; whereas the item is listed in Hong Kong, sold only 20+ in 20 days

Item listed location in United State: sold 828


Item listed location in Hong Kong: sold 21

Days of listing:


Seller profile and location: China

How much will the seller make per month?
From the statistic, the average sale per day is 100.
It is 3000 flash drive sold in 30 days. Lets say the seller make half of it $7.50 after all the expenses. It is about $22500 USD.
As a sale person in China, they make average $200-$300 USD per month. $22500/200 or 300 = 75 ~ 112 times of their monthly salary, almost 6-9 years of work salary!!!

Now, you know why these unethical sellers never go away, the scam has been running since 2007. They will never go away until eBayers are educated to help themselves.
