idk if this is the right section for this question but here goes.
I've just recently "discovered" ebay hah, and have been making a few purchases. As I browse through some selections of designer items, I wonder why they are sold so cheaply. A Marc Jacobs necklace's starting bid is $0.17! The seller has great feedback, and in the description she said everything is authentic and if not she's willing to pay back double. So how can I tell if it's real? I mean if it's a fake wouldn't she try to sell it for more so people will think its expensive because it's real (even when it's not). I hope I'm not confusing you. I just want to be a smart ebay consumer, so please help me out here.
If it is really that great then people are probably going to bid pretty high..... Making the bid low on something expensive is a good way to get a lot of bidders

If your not satisfied with any product you can send back and don't forget to get insurance on all purchases through e-bay also pay thur pay pal where you don't have to give up financial info to anyone.

Make sure you check the amount of shipping she is charging. Some sellers charge a HUGE amount for shipping so they don't have to pay as much in final value fees to ebay.

Here's something I've noticed about ebay.
Say 2 sellers are selling the same item. Something high in demand. Lets say a dvd or a video game that everyone wants. One seller will start it out at a ridiculously low price (ex. -50 cents), while the other seller will start it closer to the price its worth . Lets just say, 25 dollars.
The one that starts at a low price will attract bidders. People start bidding on that one, meanwhile nobody is bidding on the "Expensive" one. The one started at 50 cents will often get bid up to atleast the same price as the other one, sometimes even more. People dont want to bid on something that starts off at a high price but dont seem to mind bidding something up to a high price..
There's also cases of someone having a reserve price on an item. They may also have another account where they can start to bid up the item if it doesnt go for what they wanted. I think that's against ebay rules but people do it anyway. If you're new to ebay I suggest not bidding from anyone with below a 97%, unless you check their feedback and they got one or 2 negatives for a dumb reason that drastically brought down their ratings. People who have thousands of ratings but have below a 97% are repeat offenders.

Most probably, the seller has a "reserved price". Meaning that if the winning bid does not reach or exceed the reserved price, the seller does not have to sell the item and he/she can relist the item after the auction ends. Usually, authentic items with very low starting bids will eventually be sold at a much higher price, as bidders will be competing against each other to win it by bidding the highest amount that they are willing to pay for the item.
Hope that helps.

it sounds like the seller sells cheaply to get a lot of buyers so she can raise her feedback quicker the higher feedback score she has the more legit she is and check feedback percentage if its below 90% i had definitely not buy from that seller if its higher than 95% i would be more comfortable with the seller
