If anyone else is thinking about ordering the loose style Hip-Hop Hoodies on Ali. I wouldn't bother. The quality is ok, pretty much the same as Represent, but the sizing is WAY off. The fluff inside also comes off in your hair if you put the hood up!

I ordered an M which was the smallest size. The ad stated these sizes: Length 68CM Shoulder 60CM Bust 116CM. What I actually got was: Length 73cm Shoulder 66cm. The arms are absolutely HUGE and the jumper is just way off in sizing. I'm 5'10 medium build and quite broad but the hoody dwarfs me!

I've purchased clothing in China - usually their sizing is way off, a crap shoot.

I'd suggest yoiu wash your hoodie in hot water and see if it shrinks - and contest the item with AliExpress and probably get your money back.

I have seen those yeezy 350 for around 70 bucks. They are nice but i feel they are little pricy for a rep.
I like the style. Has anybody bought any pair a little bit cheaper but still ok?

OK, I have had two of these letters in ten years. Your next action is up to you but I will describe what I did.

Firstly, customs and rights holders are interested and will definitely pursue importers of containers containing tonnes or many Kgs of counterfeit goods but it is the policy of the UK government NOT to prosecute individuals when importing one item. So it comes down to the willingness of the rights holder to spend money.

At the moment the item is your property. As it is not a gun, drugs or other 'illegal' item they will ask you for permission in a roundabout way to destroy it.

My action on having an LV bag seized from an iOffer posting was to write back and state "I have bought this bag in good faith and I do not authorise it's detainment or destruction" (no more than this, polite and give nothing away) - it arrived at my door four days later. If the rights holder rep had replied with threats I would have ignored it and let it be sent on or destroyed.

The second time was a PAM watch seized. Initially I responded with the same letter but this time had a reply from a man with a one director small company (rights holder rep.,) who said that if I did not authorise destruction the rights holder 'may' decide to take me to court. My reply was to ask for a full and detailed report providing proof beyond any reasonable doubt that [the item] was counterfeit. (ball in his work and effort court)

The watch arrived after around six days.

The Borders Agency are not interested in such small fry. The RH rep., is just a sub-contractor with an opinion, the decision to cry fake is probably based on the declared value (£345 bag as $30 gift)

Let us know how you proceed. Good luck!

wow thanks for your detailed insight into this.

I will now proceed with the same response you have done, but they ask for a website etc? Should I just leave it blank and see what comes with it?

I thought so as well at first, but taking the quality in consideration it's a fair price. Also I believe the 350s for around $70 is the ones who give you most bang for your buck.

Indeed they are waiting for you to admit you knowingly and purposely bought a fake. So best course of action is above and feign ignorance.

Hey everyone -long time lurker here. I've been following this thread since page one!

My second transaction with RL polo seller is not going so well:
For the 11.11 sale, I ordered 7 more RL Polo and 3 TH sweaters from him -that's 10 items @ ~$140. My package arrived yesterday, which came to about a month-long wait. I figured it had to do with a combination of influx 11.11 sales and the holiday traffic.

When I opened my parcel locker, it turns out he literally only sent me 1 polo...ONE...I was expecting a bag of 10 items :(. I emailed him to see whats going on.

I think another member here mentioned a similar issue.

Hope to get this resolved.

----------------------------
On another note, here's my contribution:

I'm an avid Ray-Ban fan. I spent about two years looking for the best versions. I recommend the store "New Kevin Glasses Shop" Store No.1764924. That should be enough info. But I will be happy to pm the link.

Here's my collection:
20151212_065601_zps3eu2xw4p.jpg



The ones in RED (58mm shooters, silver 58mm aviator, 54mm wayfarer) are GENS. The rest I sourced from Kevin. All the packaging, booklet, cloth, case is included. The hinges are the "good" ones, lenses are glass (on the ones that should be glass) and they have good weight. They have all the etchings and all the details. I have been buying from him for a long time and it has been a real pleasure.


My only critique is that the "pearl sweat bar" on the gold models are different from the gen. But not a deal-breaker.

Can you please pm me the store link?

Hey guys, all my 11.11 sale stuff finally started arriving here in New Jersey and here's the first item.

Ray Ban 2132, in the "honey/black" combination.

I'll let the pictures speak for themselves, the color of the honey part is a little off, but not horrendous and the weight and feel is really good. I have gen new wayfarers that I had ANSI lenses put it so that I can use them on my Harley and I wanted a pair of tinted ones for off the bike. The fit is true to gen and the packaging was really pretty good. On to the pics:

Sorry the pics are too big, here's links

Email me if you want the link, I think I paid $30, which is fair as even used gens will cost you $70+

Can you please PM me the link?

Guys, I just received the DW watch and it looks great.

But I wonder if it is normal for DW watches to have the watch clasp not in the middle of your wrist. I hope the photo shows what I mean. I tried adjusting, but it stays like this. Is this normal for DW?

Are these 100 % cotton? Thanks

Alright chaps, finally received my last 3 Lacoste polos, ordered on 11.11 ! A short sleeves one is light blue instead of white, but otherwise I'm happy with the quality. Embroidered logo is not great, but will fool an untrained eye.
