All sold within the last 4 days ?
They have not got them yet ?

I think this explains it:

http://reviews.ebay.co.uk/BEWARE-of-FAKE-128GB-256GB-USB-Flash-Drives-on-eBay?ugid=10000000001236067

I'm glad I hesitated there as I usually just jump in when I see a bargain.
Don't put off until tomorrow, what you can put off until the day after.

This guy states on his page that his items are 100% authentic (although he goes on to misspell "carriage" which might say something). If these are genuine then TH has taken to stitching the most pathetic labels on with the most unprofessional stitching I have ever seen.

Is that the fashion nowadays?  I think not and why he'd put the most obvious image of a Turkish knock-off in the auction's description, is probably because he's totally clueless (assuming he is a "he").

What's worse is they are godawful jeans that even Primark would be ashamed to sell.

They remind me of Bananarama for some reason.

I reported those jeans as I was miffed that he seller stated he only sold authentic clothes.  Had he left it to the buyers to figure out, I wouldn't have cared.

Now eBay have mailed me and asked me to be a regular grass as they said I seem to have an extensive knowledge of Hilfiger.  "Seem"? pfftt!

I agreed so now I have the power of a Hall Monitor.  Beware.

nice price for church music

Worth no more than about £150 too.  They really need to open the prayer software if they want that £695 they're asking.

No wonder it didn't sell.  Now if it came complete with a miracle or two, you might be talking serious money...
