    £44 quid for a white t shirt. I think the OP is beyond help.

    what would worry me is that his site http://thedesignercollections.com/ only gives a link to his ebay shop, why just has an ebay store if they are genuine
    Because it costs money and Marketing (which isn't cheap) to set up a stand alone website.

    Things like this come up at the auctions frequently. Usually end of line or bankrupt stock. If it's available to buy elsewhere, it could be the seller has a shop. Nobody seems to question Asos, who do the same thing in bulk.

    Op save your money ,people only buy stuff like this because they like to show off a name but the truth is no one really cares .Kids all lover the third world are wearing brands like this, fake of course but really we need to stop worrying about what logo and a cheaply made t shirt has, especially as it is made in a sweat shop in India .It would be more honest to have a logo saying child laborer been exploited but at least the share holders are happy .

    Wow.

    If you need a hand with gaining your refund from Charm School, head up to the consumer rights board and I'm sure someone up there can help.

    Thank for replies. I wouldn't usually dream of spending that amount on a T shirt but my hubby like the fit and feel of his last one and its lasted him 7 years so I would be willing if this was the same.

    Are you saying Asos buy bankrupt stock from somewhere else? Or that they have shops as well as the website?
