    How many of you guys have bought Creeds on eBay and have been satisfied or not satisfied?

    Is it better to buy from online retailers like Fragrance.net or is it pretty safe for Creeds on eBay?

    I guess that would depend who the seller is and what kind of feedback he has received. Personally think that Fragrancenet is a safer option.

    I think so too but sometimes the prices are pretty good on eBay but many of them you have to bid on which I hate and the "buy it now" prices are usually more money than what you can buy it from Fragrance.net...

    I got my 4 oz. GIT on eBay for a great price. It's a tester and legit. $112 I believe.

    Just spend the extra money and have peace of mind smile.gif. Too many fakes on eBay and it is a hassle (mainly time consuming process) to get your money back.

    I would go with Fragrancenet. IMO it's safer. You know how Ebay can be.

    While I have bought Creeds on Ebay in the past, I no longer do, especially for 4 oz. GIT, which has got to be one of the most counterfeited colognes on the market right now. 

     

    It's not that I think Ebay is that bad, but the prices never seem to be much less than at legitimate discounters.  I know I'm getting an authentic product from places like fragrancex, scentiments, or fragrancenet. 

     

    True, buyer protection through paypal is a savior, but it remains a hassle I'd rather not deal with. Although I can honestly say I do not remember ever receiving a fake scent on Ebay, even once.

    With 20% off @ FNet it comes down to $109 (there are listings for EDP and EDT there that differ in price, but as we all know there aren't multiple concentrations of Creeds like this).
