    I've now sent him this very polite message, hoping to be able to settle things in a civilized manner:

    Hey, People on SZ has informed me that you've had exactly the same problem with what appears to be the very same jacket. Chinorlz advised you to take it to a leather specialist to see what they had to say about how affected the leather beneath the whiteness (presuming mold) was. What did the leather specialists say?

      His answer:

      No not the same leather, that's why I initially thought it was mold as it's happened on my current leather. However that leather was kept in a bag and in my closet for a month then did develope mold. Your one however wasn't kept in a bag nor left for more then a week. (I owned it for 2) With my molded jacket I just dry cleaned it and haven't had any issues. But given that those specialists you went said it wasn't mold I don't know?

      Don't know whether to believe him or not.

        One very important question, there weren't any white stains visible on pics while you were buying this jacket, am I right?

          No, but the close-ups of the jacket didn't show that particular area, just other details. There was one pic of the whole jacket, but that was a small pic, blurry, with bad resolution and lighting that made the jacket shiny. It didn't say anything, other than the jackets had its arms intact.

          And the spot becomes almost invisible for several minutes when is has been wetted. So it's probably easy to hide in a cell phone pic.

            According to that I suppose that the seller knew what he was selling and the spot was there before. Tbh it's almos invisible for it to appear during shipping.

              Absolutely. My guess is that it is some sort of mold, and it's obvious that is has been there for a while.

                By the way, the spot smells very bad; it's some sort of intense sweet stench. It fills my small apartment.

                  So the seller is saying that he had two of the same CCP jackets with a white stain greater on the inside than on the outside on the anterior portion of the right pocket with the stain traversing the lining to the leather on the inside and penetrating outwards to the outer shell of the jacket?

                  Looks like the same stain that I (and others on here) had commented on and attempted to assist the original owner with a week or two ago.

                    i don't know luket but thats a highly unlikely story. i would be pushing for a full or partial refund asap.

                    not disclosing a stain on a t shirt is dubious but forgivable. on a ccp leather its downright cruel and the financial impact is quite substantial. i would be enraged
                    dying and coming back gives you considerable perspective

                      That's the official story. Two identical jackets with the exact same stain on the exact same places. I'm sorry but I find it hard, not to say impossible, to believe.

                        Yes. I had contact with other sellers who were almost pedantic in the way they gave an account for tiny stains and almost invisible cracks in their CCP leathers. This seller assured me the leather was as new and in mint condition. So yes, I will be pushing for a full or partial refund.

                        As you can understand I am very upset.

                          This is totally ridiculous and not possible. Go for a refund man, at least a partial one.

                            The seller has agreed to a full or partial refund, depending on what I choose to do. So far he has been very helpful and willing to sort things out.

                              Good to hear that. If I were you I'd go for a partial refund if the stain will be removable without any harm to finish of the jacket.

                                Yes, that's what I'm leaning towards.

                                In that case I'll post pics showing what I can of the stain (or mold) removing process... Hopefully it will help someone.
