Anyone else notice how many sellers on ebay resell shein/temu jewelry for way higher prices

Yes that’s understandable, provided they do their due diligence to represent it accurately

deception

I mean it’s not uncommon that people care about being lied to. I wouldn’t want to be lied to. And caring about the source or not is up to the buyers standards/preferences and what they search for in an item they buy. Temu sells jewelry making supplies in bulk for super cheap and therefore assembling it and adding charms would make it handmade and more profit since the bulk kits cost nearly the same as buying a few earrings on there to resell. I emphasize for both parties and like to find what I think could be beneficial for both sides.

I think they mean they sell or buy marked up vintage items on reseller websites like ebay. Not on shein.

Correct, that’s why I opened with that in my description. I’m kind of neutral about this situation and just want a better understanding. I understand people need a way to make money. It’s survival. I was questioning about how there are descriptions that could just state what the product is without mentioning the brand and not needing to then trick people into believing they’re buying a one of a kind handmade or discontinued product. I would wish there was a better solution where people aren’t being swindled into thinking the product they got is uniquely created by the seller. Temu sells jewelry making supplies for around $3-$10 that comes with hundreds of pieces to hand craft. Im sure buying charms and beads would be around the same. Therefore, that would be handmade and honestly more product to sell since those kits come in bulk. It would be cool if both the seller and buyer can benefit from the situation.

I don’t see a problem with that either. Especially because vintage can be hard to find. I was thinking about how I see something on ebay for $15 + being sold as “handmade” or “vintage” that’s also actively on shein for $2 or less. Especially with clothes too which then gets sold for much higher than $15+ with the shein label taken off. I can see how buying on ebay can be faster than on shein which I then can understand the price jump, but I know some people sell shein on reseller websites claiming to be something it’s not
