Mind you the item came in its original box, so all they were going to do is throw shipping paper over the orig box and send it out...Now the auctioner added shipping will be actual price since ebay got a hold of them...Also be wary of some merchandise being bootlegged and reproductioned. Ebay has been really hit with fraud as of late, and it's not so much the fake accounts anymore...Now its gone to the bootleggers. Prada, when its really Frada, Nike, when its really Niky and so on...Becareful bidding and buyer beware until they can get a handle on this.
