The North Face counterfeits

Been suckered by a counterfeit seller. Strange that they all seem to live in Lancashire or more precisely Manchester area. The North Face Summit Series 2 in 1 Jacket, BNWT (ha!) for 82. It's too good to be true and I should not have been so stupid as to buy this item from ANNIOSZKA aka ANNA KOBYLARZ.


So what was wrong with it? One sleeve hanging off, inner fleece covered in oily stains, seams not sealed (as they were described). Also no inside chest pocket, no inside water bottle pocket, no cuff adjustability and no powder skirt all of which were included in the description.


Having tried this thing on the XL label was laughable (if it wasn't my money being stolen) and the overall feel of the cut and shape were abysmal.


So would I dare to wear this (even if I could) in the Highlands of Scotland on a freezing windy winters day. No I bloody well wouldn't!


The seller informs me that all her goods are brand new and that she checked it before she sent it. Yeah right!! And has she made any move to resolve this? Nope! No way. Guess we'll not be seeing your name on ebay for a while then or at least not the name given above but don't worry because the flow of counterfeit jackets coming out of the north Manchester area will continue unabated.


Oh and as for PayPal and their Buyer Protection - forget it. They deemed there was nothing wrong with this jacket in spite of the long list of things I told them and REFUSED MY CLAIM BECAUSE I COULD NOT PROVE IT WAS A FAKE. For Buyer Protection READ Seller Protection and for Seller Protection READ Seller Protection.


ANNA KOBYLARZ, (ANNIOSZKA), you're a crook and a thief.
