Know what you want and choose sellers with good feedback. That’s about it. I buy a lot of nice clothing on ebay, especially designer blazers and suits. You can get really nice stuff, e.g. black label Armani, in the $100-200 price range, where something similar brand new would be $3-5K. However, a lot of people don’t know that the diffusion line stuff (e.g. Armani Exchange, Armani Collezioni, etc.) are made from cheaper materials and not as nice, but many sellers price them like the couture lines. I’m not say that some of the diffusion line items aren’t nice, it’s just that the main label stuff is generally better, and you need to know the difference to get a good deal.
