I think these items are reportable to eBay (or wherever they're being sold) that they're fakes, or that the seller may not be aware that they're not vintage, etc. On eBay, people have had their listings shut down for keyword spamming in the titles or having just an image of a link (like a web site address in a photograph), so I think something as serious as selling fakes, forgeries, etc. would be dealt with similarly.

However, to be fair, unless the exact same product can be definitely found to prove that the items aren't vintage, which could then be submitted to eBay as proof, I'd suggest leaving this auction and the seller alone. Not that eBay wouldn't shut this down without evidence (they've been known to).

Take care,

I.
