Leather jacket weather again after a couple of warm days.
To the member who was mentioning "and mention it when you sell it on it's all good," (removed side laces) and therefore thinking that I'm THAT kind of a person (or a little child?) to defraud other members (potential buyers in case I'm selling it) kept me thinking to leave this forum forever and better spend the valuable time with family and friends.
But after thinking about it for one week I thought that there are fortunately so many other nice members here is worth it to change my mind. And of course it's everyone's right to NOT have trust in people.
Btw. the side laces were removed by a cobbler (not a taylor as I used the wrong word) and I like it (result looks good) - the seller told me all details before I made the payment. The jacket is really heavy (heavier than other RMC, FW leather jackets I own) and stitching (much better than my The Flat Head Half Belt I sold) and general construction and leather are really nice! @Mysteryo Thanks again for sharing the Vinted.fr link! The seller from France bought it through Buyee Japan and not from the member here as he bought it brand new and he wore it probably twice (like new condition).
Cheers
Robbie

Are you talking about me?
I wrote: "In the end, as long as you are happy with the result and mention it when you sell it on it's all good, but i don't think i would have bought it..."
IMO i was not implying that you would try defraud people, just that this kind of detail was worth mentionning if the jacket was ever sold. I was not making a judgement of character, just stating that i would like to be informed of that alteration.
I have bought many jackets on TFL from known members that had been altered/damaged without any mention anywhere in the add, it happens more often than you think...
Sorry it made you want to leave, it was really not my intention.
Glad you like the jacket, it looks amazing!
