Your Ebay Purchase: Quality Item or Ripoff?
Have you ever wondered if the luxury and designer watches, jewelry, and handbags you're bidding on Ebay at prices too good to be true, are legit or fakes?
No doubt you're not alone on this as Internet Chatrooms are rife with horror stories from consumers who thought they were getting a great deal only to find out to their chagrin that they've been ripped off.
Well, now comes the announcement of an organization that claims that they will authenticate the quality of these Ebay listed luxury goods. The name of their website is colinsworth.com and the link is here: Ebay Luxury Goods Authentication
They offer guaranteed third-party authentication of luxury watches, jewelry and handbags being auctioned on eBay.
"Up until now, bidders on luxury goods online did so with great trepidation and at great risk," Colinsworth Authentication's founder and chief executive officer Colin Dreizin said in a statement. "With the old way, buyers were saving 30 to 50 percent on luxury goods while taking a 75 to 90 percent chance of receiving a worthless counterfeit. For consumers, and for luxury goods manufacturers who wish to maintain their well-deserved reputations for quality, this is clearly a losing situation."
For example, Tiffany and Co. found that 75 percent of jewelry items offered in online auctions using the Tiffany name were counterfeit. Rolex sued two European subsidiaries of eBay over alleged auctions of counterfeit Rolex watches.
"By engaging our expert authenticators before the online sale is completed, buyers are guaranteed of purchasing legitimate luxury items, and sellers are assured that prices for their luxury items aren't driven down by their proximity to fakes," Dreizin said.
Both buyers and sellers can register for the service at the site. For buyers, the service protects them from counterfeits and fraud. For sellers, the service signals to buyers that they have agreed to have their items authenticated before sales are completed and protects them from chargebacks and fraud, the company said.
"By allowing us, a third-party authenticator, to confirm the items as being genuine, buyers are assured that the item is authentic," Dreizin said. "And, since all buyers have the same guarantee of authenticity, they should bid more often and bid higher, driving prices up."

Between me and my husband we've owned more MP3 players over the years than I can count, including Sansas, iRivers, iPods (classic & touch), the Ibiza Rhapsody, etc. But, the last few years I've settled down to one line of players. Why? Because I was happy to discover how well-designed and fun to use the underappreciated (and widely mocked) Zunes are.

This is getting a bit more subjective, but I much prefer the Zune Marketplace. The interface is colorful, has more flair, and some cool features like 'Mixview' that let you quickly see related albums, songs, or other users related to what you're listening to. Clicking on one of those will center on that item, and another set of "neighbors" will come into view, allowing you to navigate around exploring by similar artists, songs, or users. Speaking of users, the Zune "Social" is also great fun, letting you find others with shared tastes and becoming friends with them. You then can listen to a playlist created based on an amalgamation of what all your friends are listening to, which is also enjoyable. Those concerned with privacy will be relieved to know you can prevent the public from seeing your personal listening habits if you so choose.

I feel like you could probably teach a class on how to make a great blog. This is fantastic! I have to say, what really got me was your design. You certainly know how to make your blog more than just a rant about an issue. Youve made it possible for people to connect. Good for you, because not that many people know what theyre doing.

I have to say that Im really unimpressed with this. I mean, sure, youve got some very interesting points. But this blog is just really lacking in something. Maybe its content, maybe its just the design. I dont know. But its almost like you wrote this because everybodys doing it. No passion at all.

I'll gear this review to 2 types of people: current Zune owners who are considering an upgrade, and people trying to decide between a Zune and an iPod. (There are other players worth considering out there, like the Sony Walkman X, but I hope this gives you enough info to make an informed decision of the Zune vs players other than the iPod line as well.)

Though I like the AOL style I ca nothelp but criticize the lack of readability. As an unrecognizable new appear that can be a massive deviation from the authentic, I would have manufactured the AOL letters in opposition to a different background or somehow emphasize the A a bit extra.

There are certainly a couple more details to take into consideration, but thank you for sharing this information.
