    Leather jacket - Length vs Fit?

    I think the second jacket looks fine - length is good. Arms look good. Shoulders are a smidgen loose, but the whole fit is a more relaxed look as opposed to the sharp, rigid, tailored look that you see around here with double riders. I am no fashion expert - but I think the second fit looks...

    Leather jacket - Length vs Fit?

    Second one looks much better. I don't think it looks too big/baggy for you at all. Nor do I think this type of jacket that is supposed to be worn skin tight? In terms of length, for the second size it looks like you zipped it up and then pulled the jacket down, where the elastics then held it...

    TOJ - updates on the debacle, complaints, news about other ventures, whatever.

     That's how I felt initially. Lol. But when it is all done, take a look at your PayPal account - for some reason even though I got exactly what I paid in my own currency, PayPal took more out of Drew's account in USD than the $780. Presumably the bank or PayPal or both got a cut or had...

    TOJ - updates on the debacle, complaints, news about other ventures, whatever.

    Original order date: Feb 2014. The "resolution center" I got through to the second time, after hearing my story decided to open my case based on: 1. Initial order had quoted a long delivery time frame (30 weeks) 2. There was proof that delivery date was moved a few times. It was possible to...

    TOJ - updates on the debacle, complaints, news about other ventures, whatever.

    Great sharing! Adding my personal experience - when I first called VISA, I too was directed to the BBB or some other "consumer protection agency". This was back in January. I called a second time mid March, this time I was transferred to the resolution center, and they opened a case for me. I...

    TOJ - updates on the debacle, complaints, news about other ventures, whatever.

    Along the same line of thinking - I think he is also too lazy/busy to respond to any VISA dispute inquiries, and so when the deadline is up, you get paid, and presumably money is taken out of his account. I wonder if this is how he has decided to manage the refund situation. He's not doing the...

    I wonder if Drew realizes that he can barely maintain one customer list with any sense of proficiency, let alone the customer list AND a refund list. So said ******* everyone is getting a jacket regardless. Eventually.

    TOJ - updates on the debacle, complaints, news about other ventures, whatever.

    Not quite sure if this is entirely true - my understanding is that it depends on whether there has been provable constant communication where the vendor has moved the delivery date. So if you ordered Aug 2013 and was given a delivery date of 30 weeks, but through e-mail inquiries you have been...

    TOJ - updates on the debacle, complaints, news about other ventures, whatever.

     Ugh. This would be kinda funny in an unfortunate way. I asked for a refund not because I had buyer's remorse or lost interest in the product. It's because of the wait time greatly exceeding what I was willing to invest in being tied up with an organization/retailer. So my attempt to cut...

    For those of us that had updated the spreadsheet initially with our orders, and then subsequently requested a refund --- should we strike through or highlight our orders in a different colour or something? This will show the actual queue size better? Or maybe you guys already deleted your...

    Yes a wallet! And ummm perhaps a pouchette for the ladies? :embar: Maybe even a satchel or a tote? :drool:

     Nice! Yup after reading your previous posts I went through those photos as well. I initially wanted calf because I missed how my university jacket (from MANY years ago) felt. It was all calfskin and I was not the least bit careful with it (though I did not christen it by mopping up beer...

    TOJ - updates on the debacle, complaints, news about other ventures, whatever.

     So did you decide which leather you will be getting, dittochu? Curious because I am in the exact same situation, also 5'2 female. But based on all the pictures and comments I've seen/read, I'm now leaning towards the lamb. I think. Is there any reason why goat doesn't seem to be a popular...
