As someone who has been wearing the RL line for 20 ofthe 35 years of mylife I've gee to be able to spot a Ralph Lauren shirt in a thrift store just by looking at the sleave of the shirt. This is why I've gee to write this post.
Purchasing ANY Ralph Lauren appearl from the Far East can be very risky. Be sure to look at clues in photo's such as;
1. Buttons.. On all of RL Polo shirts, Oxford{Button Downs}, and just about anyother shirt, but the Purple Lable the buttons are white. Purple Lable are usually going to be mother of Pearl.
2. If you see the piqup is showing more then three buttons, this item shouldn't be listed as a Polo golf shirt. If it says Big pony it is not.
3. Know the difference in the lables. I see time and time again post that read; "POLO RL," when the item is Chaps. A cheaper version of Ralph Lauren. These items are ok, but not good enough for the more discremenating customers.
4. They will claim to have polly, bags, etc.. These too are fakes. DO NOT JUST LOOK AT WRITTING, LOOK AT THE ITEM.
5. Think about what you are paying... If you are paying very, very little, even though it's on the Bay.. There has to be a catch. A .01 for a polo shirt? gee on, how are they making any kind of margin, unless it's used or fake.
All ways take a feild trip to your local department store before purchasing highend goods. Knowledge is the key to keep from being ripped off. This may be my last time speaking to you here, as I am refusing to pay for an item I won, as I found it to be a fake. Rather the bad feedback then the loss of monies.
