they're selling the same milsurp flecktarn parka for 90 EUR under Reclaimed Vintage, what you can get anywhere for around $20, also they're tagging it as "Exclusive", jokes on you ASOS

not really

having 6x markup on an item is called being dicks, i mean sell it for double price, but 6x, wtf?!
i just don't like how they're trying to take me for a fool

lel, it's already sold out, so actually there were people who bought this for 90 EUR, congrats

but why stop there? i think i'll buy 1,000 parkas for $20 a piece and sell those for 2xASOS price, because it's sold out on ASOS and was exclusive, i guess that could be considered business as well

>having 6x markup on an item is called being dicks,

unless you're raf simons/rick owens right? then it's called being an artist.
>>
>>9209057
that's called business, look it up :^)
>inb4 MUH BUSINES ETHICNS PLS, sOME WAaYS to EArN moNeY Are BETter bangladeshi kids are starving ::((( pls support my online petition to stop scam !
>>
>>9209068
that's two very different things

ASOS doesn't manufacture these, they bought them for let's say around $20 per piece in bulk and they're selling it for $120
Raf and Rick produce their own shit, they ask what they ask for their items, you can't get those anywhere for 1/6 price

what ASOS do with this particular item is not business, it's fraud or unfair business at the least

>Good thing I bought mine on Amazon for $30.

not atm, but i'd sell my kidney for 1k flecktarns, then when turning it to 100k profit, i'd buy the kidney back
>>
>>9209015
Next time, change your Its A Scam! opener to "Hey guys just so you know you can get it cheaper here".
Either way this should be educational - always check elsewhere before buying from a site that orders from China
>>
>>9209122
I dyed mine black 2 days ago. Turned out pretty nice.
>>
I never come on /fa/, is this coat /fa/?
I've worn mine for months. It's dyed black but the dye is fading out.

Why are these so cheap? I want one too
>>
>>9209429
wtc with liner in the US of A?
>>
>>9209472
Cause it's milsurplus which more than often is cheap as fuck.
Stellar fucking quality for what you pay too, they are made for armies so they have to go through all sorts of abuse and still hold up.

How the fuck do you size this shit
>>
>>9209481
they fit like tents. size down.
>>
>>9209481
I'm a medium by the way~

^__^
>>
>>9209482
But what do the numbers mean?
>>
>>9209486
chest width, middle is something else, last is the length from nape to bottom(?)
>>
>>9209492
I don't get it man. Are they inches or what? I know I seem retarded but it's because I am
>>
>>9209498
a 35 inch is pretty standard, so im going to go with inches.
>>
>>9209477
Can Americans purchase these? The sites her are for Euros it seems
>>
>>9209498
You could just google the german army standard sizing and go by those sizes.
>>9209501
Ebay probably has them with sellers that will ship anywhere.
>>
>>9209477
Does the liner change the color ?
>>
>>9209498
GR = Große = BW Size
>>
>>9210051
*Größe

Remember though that this sizing system is meant for moveability in the field. Not 'fashion'
>>
>>9209152
Pics?
>>
What's the smallest size available for these? I'm just seeing the small with 35 chest and 170-180cm height.
>>
>>9210635
And I forgot, what should I do to keep the dye in the jacket for a long time? I really don't want to dye it in black RIT and it comes off in 2 months. Is dylon any better to dye it?
