That guy has been dinged before for the exact same jacket, sold as an authentic special edition made in Italy version. PayPal made him refund the money, he threw a shit fit. Now he's trying to do it again on a less known site.

It's a bit of a risky move since this website we're talking about is a Moscow local site which means local meetups. I'd beaten a guy who knowingly tries to sell me a fake jacket to a pulp and submit a swindler/con claim right after.Comment

That's really some CSI: Stylezeitgeist action.
You'd still better keep an eye on this because some people (I know for a fact about one or two) just repost this shit on grailed and probably ebay with some extra on the original price. I don't think they would care about checking authenticity.
Just in case, here are some "Chrome Hearts" basics that are listed from the same person:
As in "have beaten"? That's hardcore.Originally posted by newp View Post

Rick Mega Cowl
Can anyone weigh in on this shirt? It's a Rick Mega Cowl I bought off of Ebay a while ago, before I realized people were faking Rick.
Everything (button placement, slight curvature of button plaque, reference number) looks consistent with what I've found online except for the ribbon, which says "Mountain F/W 14". Mountain was FW12. I'm not sure about the tag, but I have some other pieces from Rick with the same tags. Material of this shirt is 100% cotton.
Thanks very much.Comment

It's fake, the product code should have the "u" uppercase as well, so it should be "RU".Originally posted by jabronicoolword View PostCan anyone weigh in on this shirt? It's a Rick Mega Cowl I bought off of Ebay a while ago, before I realized people were faking Rick.

Font for the name of the collection is wrong, and like you mentioned, Mountain is 2012, not 2014.Comment

If anyone could give a legit check on this Geo leather, that would be greatly appreciated.
Seller believes its from F/W 08 Stag, and says the tag shows that it's made in Italy.
I'm unfamiliar with Rick pieces from that year, should it say Made in Italy right above Olmar and Mirta?
Should I request pictures of certain parts of the jacket to help determine its authenticity?
Any advice would be helpful, thanks!
These are the pictures he's provided:

Sadly, this is a fake, the tags are nothing like they should look...Originally posted by jabronicoolword View PostCan anyone weigh in on this shirt? It's a Rick Mega Cowl I bought off of Ebay a while ago, before I realized people were faking Rick.

A simple measure is looking at the tags and seeing whether there is a dotted imprint over the letters/numbers. That is usually proof of legitimacy, fakes to my knowledge, never have it.Comment

Based on what you said about the dotted imprint, is the tag I posted above authentic then?Originally posted by GucciAmen View Post
Also I've seen some tags that use numbers to mark the size, whereas other tags use letters, any input on that?
LR is supposed be rugged lamb, but I'm not sure how "rugged" it's supposed to look.Comment
