Yikes think Ive bought a fake!

Just received a T shirt that I bought on Ebay, and I really truly think that its a fake, just by looking at the hems. It should have been Lacoste, but on further reading, t shirts have 3 buttons ( has 2!) size should be numerical (ie 4, 5 etc) says XL! Wondering if there are any Lacoste experts that can help me more! Any advice most apprciated.
Alison.

    Ebay is rife with fakes!! If it was cheap and well below market value, then it's very likely a fake.

    Take it to a store that sells originals and see if they will verify it's fake.

    No, I am not perfect, but yes I do judge people on their use of basic English language. If you didn't know the above, then learn it! (If English is your second language, then you are forgiven!)

    Depends if you paid the right price! I was quite happy getting 'Boss' shirts for £6 from eBay.

    Heh, I was torn between Uggs and GHDs myself.

    I'm no Lacoste expert but know that their polo's come in numerical sizes so anything with a S, M etc label is fake. How much did you pay for it?
