This was a gift from my boss. I kept it for a few months before I just sold it. It is pretty solid. Made in USA. You can't beat the quality. If I needed a sterling silver money clip I would buy a...

I just picked this up and I am pretty pleased. Just what I expected. I am pleased with the Bark. However, I wish it was a little darker. A great deal for $35. Comparable to other belts in the...

I don't think the retail on this was $2500. Also, it's quite old; GA hasn't used those tags in ages (Probably 15 years or more). I'm not saying the suit isn't nice, but it would be best to describe it accurately. It may not be worn, but it's definite Old Stock of Armani's second (Diffusion) line, probably from the late 1980's or early 1990's. I have no problems with folk selling older stuff or trying to sell here for a profit... or to try and flip stuff they find at thrift stores, closeouts, or consignments (which is where I'm guessing this was found). BUT, when they ask top dollar for it (if you spent more than $50 for this, I'll eat my hat), and describe it as "new with tags" without mentioning provenance, I just think it's shady. SFers trust each other to be clear about what they are selling. Like other threads where people sell Marc by marc Jacobs as "Marc Jacobs," D&G as "Dolce & Gabbana," etc., it's all just a little shady.

Hi, thank you very much for your comment! Actually, I grabbed this one off Ebay and I was been told the suit originally cost >$2500. I don't really know how old the suit is myself in fact. BTW, I didn't mention anything like GA topline or anything like. I just described as the tag attached on the sleeve, which is "GIORGIO ARMANI le Collezioni". I'm 100% sure a lot of SFers are experts, and I'm just a rookie. So, if I did anything not professional, please allow me. Thanks again!
Regards,
