Ok, unfortunately I was on my own in Knutsford, a town approximately 20 miles outside Manchester and I was feeling pretty lousy as i was suffering from a nasty chill. That was nothing to the chill I felt in my wallet after experiencing something very similar to the earlier report by Jimmy. I guess if I had had other people t confer with I may have seen through the two gents patter but I didnt and ended up buying 6 coats.
Both guys spoke during the con which was as I say similar to Jimmy's experience but they wanted 250 for the first 3 coats and then said they hd another3 which they asked me to offer a price for, I said 100 but after haggling I paid 120 for the other 3 coats.
I thought they sounded pretty authentic, they were very pleasant, well they would be wouldnt they, and I have to say the coats are very nice but obviously this is a con given the virtually identical spin re a fashion show at the MEN arena, even had a badge that looked like they could have used to get in!
So beware Italians bearing gifts at knock down prices - why i did it I still dont understand but I did. Stupid me!
