It is not anything like the cases Tiffany, et al, had with ebay. In that case, people were selling knockoffs, replicas, etc. I don't think anyone is selling counterfeit perfume. Off condition, perhaps, but no one seems to be bottling their own stuff and passing it off as something else. I don’t know why either. It is not anything like the cases Tiffany, et al, had with ebay.

Generally I have been very happy with my purchases, but the one time I purchased a scent was disastrous. I purchased a lot of the classic Polo cologne in 4 small sample sizes. It only cost me $20 US and when they arrived, one bottle was leaking and they all had gone bad. Old Polo smells like Pine-sol. I communicated with the seller, who purchased the cologne from a warehouse. He had no idea how long it had been sitting there (!). I returned the shipment but was never refunded. Live and learn. That aside, I don't know why the French government is dictating what North American's can or cannot buy online. In Toronto there are dozen's of discount perfume stores that sell items at 20 to 30% below the department store prices. I would be careful about buying cologne on eBay.
