Did you check the front pockets?

also check underneath the big tags if they're not sewn down all the way around. i've seen smaller size tags there also.

Thanks @ridethecliche . Good call. @SpooPoker I had my doubts. They were next to a couple of obvious fakes, so I should have guessed. I know nothing about Versace but the tipping looks super sketchy.

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

Yup, as predicted, the black and gold one is fake - FYI, Versace will never ever have a blue label. The maroon/blue one is legit.

One way or another, we all pay for our education. I know I've spent a fair amount of money on crap I should have passed on, or spent time to figure something out. Thanks to Spoo and several others, we've also got Cliffs Notes up in here.

Found this awesome jacket. Thought it would fit my wife, but alas a bit too small. Before I put it up, would like to make available to SF who have dapper wives/gfs. NWT Brooks Brothers brown herringbone Size 12. What's the term for this jacket? Riding coat?

It makes me think of a safari jacket

This is the camo I'm looking for right? Looks like the faded edges for ERDL, with white tags, and 68 to 69 in the DSA #s.

Well done! That is indeed the camo you are looking for (ERDL). Not only that but those are a very desirable size and look stone mint, maybe even unworn . Those are $$ Nice haul altogether!
