I've been checking out some Dewalt grinders on eBay, and prices range from £100 to £200, which seems a bit off to me. I've seen some listings for 20V grinders labeled as Dewalt, and when I reached out, the sellers insisted they're not fake. Here's one specific listing I found: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/316815729479?_skw=dewalt+grinder+xr&itmmeta=01K3206VCARKEA3WMEB79BYB99&hash=item49c3b06347:g:iEsAAOSwdwZoDg4p&itmprp=enc%3AAQAKAAAA8FkggFvd1GGDu0w3yXCmi1cGWNw8DV3GGXz8Ajj%2BxunmqsJSkSEYnUszD9TvjdGR%2BOr8psaRCI9OD7v3LWiY0pEAcE9fQ3jSfMM0hDyEBAPTB9gYhMYGOrZWTvnvkRrvD0z3d6SXdG1LwUIKcbn7Iev2SVJOSqdQ%2FU4%2FlPjzIJRGmua011PlWmhRuPsXfR1UXs3LX2GBEYAk8u%2FAdssVU0axq5By32ZE7QZxEP%2FV1qX0Ng1%2FqepdxTLIthGW%2BH4wNca2qixq7pFk1YLguopo%2BoektWujGQN2y0XaPJXqnGbDlCj8dFmk%2FFU46ryDZamm2Q%3D%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR7K2m8CYZg. Can anyone tell me if these deals are too good to be true?

From what I've seen, that grinder isn't genuine. Dewalt doesn’t use weird LEDs at the battery base for their grinders. The description seems off too—basically, a no-go!
Totally agree! If it feels like a risk, it's not worth it. Stick to trusted sources.
Honestly, those prices seem pretty questionable for new Dewalt tools. Retailers charge around £145 or more for similar items, so it's likely that these could be fake, used, or possibly even damaged. I'd be cautious before buying!
Yeah, definitely agree! As tempting as those deals seem, it's always good to double-check the seller and their ratings. You don’t want to end up with a dud.
Exactly! If a deal looks too good, it probably is. I'd only buy from sellers with high ratings and solid reviews.
I’ve bought real tools from eBay before, but I always check the seller’s rating and history first. If it’s too cheap, I get suspicious. Just because someone says it’s not fake doesn’t mean it’s true!
Legit! I always look at the seller’s history too. It can really help filter out the scams.
For sure! A few bad reviews can be a red flag. Trust your gut! If it seems off, just skip it.

Yeah, I'm with you on that. Always better to stay safe and avoid those sketchy listings.
