Fake??

I recently bought a tee-shirt from Abercrombie & Fitch outlet website. It was shipped from China & now I have it I'm not sure if it is real. How do I find out??

Easy if you bought from http://www.abercrombie.co.uk or http://www.abercrombie.com (which defaults to the uk site) then it is genuine, if you didn't then it isnt

Shipped from China = Fake

No real branded goods are shipped direct from China to the customer.

Let me guess, you paid £5 for a item of clothing that normally retails at over £50 and you're wondering if it is genuine.

Did you pay with a credit card? I've heard credit card companies have refunded fake items that were sold as real before. Worth a shot I suppose...

sadly a friend got scammed by one of these fake Abercrombie sites, the prices were actually pretty much the same as you'd expect, it was something like https://www.abercrombie.uk.com, or abercrombielondon.com

When you google abercrombie bar the first result which is genuine, there are multiple fakes on page one alone. Seems a popular scam to pretend to be them.

I paid £16.99 for a t-shirt that is normally £25.
The website was abercrombieoutlet.uk.com

Feel so stupid now!!:o

You could try and return it for a refund, although I note their T&C's state you'll have to pay the return postage and a 15% handling charge.

Exactly...I'll get £14.41 back for a £26.99 purchase!! Plus paying for the postage to return it.

It wouldn't be so bad if it fitted, ordered woman XL but they sent me girl XL. But they ensure me they wouldn't make mistake like that!!
