When determining who I do business with, it's all about the feedback. Generally I tend to stay away from those who are fairly new, and I look for the users that have a lot of feedback. Reading the person's feedback gives me either a positive or negative impression on that person, and from there I decide whether or not to place a bid.
If a person has sold a fake or broken item, then usually they'll get negative feedback from the person who bought it from them. Most of the time the sellers will post pictures up with a description of their item. And usually that helps also. If you know your item, then you can usually tell whether or not it's a phony just by looking at the picture.
