A RECENT LISTING ON eBay reads:"Brand new authentic Louis Vuitton holdall,188!"Offers another:"Authentic Dior sunglasses,23.30."Too good to be true? You bet,says Paris-based luxury giant LVMH Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton.LVMH has filed a lawsuit against eBay Inc.contending that nearly all Vuitton and Dior items sold on the auction site are fakes.LVMH's complaint,filed in a Paris court on Sept.21,is the latest salvo in a battle that could shake the foundations of the online auction business.EBay has long styled itself as a marketplace where buyers and sellers make deals with minimal supervision.
