Is it possible to buy a genuine samsung charger on eBay?

Is it!?

Many of the adverts say so but I'm not sure I trust them....

Anyone know any reputable sellers, it's like a minefield out there !

Or maybe just a normal website to buy it off, ebay would be preferred though..

Thanks all!

Is there any reason you want a samsung charger specifically? There are plenty of good third party ones that are less likely to be copied. For example Anker chargers are quite good in my experience.

I guess if you really do want a Samsung charger it's best to buy direct from them at one of their shops.

Try Amazon. If you avoid the MarketPlace sellers (which have the same counterfeit problems as eBay) and instead buy directly from Amazon you'll get a genuine item.

This one is only £8

Then type Samsung charger in the bar on the page and it will give you several to choose from before getting to the non genuine chargers

If it's for an S6 or later consider one of the Qualcom Quickcharge 2.0 chargers. Very handy if you've forgotten to charge your phone overnight

+1 for quickcharge 2/3 charger. It's the same technology that Samsung's faster charging etc are based on. The charger and device negotiate a charging voltage, instead of always being 5v it could be 7v or 9v (or theoretically even 12v). Very much faster
