Hello everyone! This is my first time posting on here, although I've been lurking the forums for about half a year now. So, let's get straight to it! I've been searching online for discounted Burberry trenches, and I will say, it's mighty difficult to find them in my size (I'm a pretty small guy)! I did, however find a nice looking Burberry Prorsum trench in my size on ebay, but I'm cautious of spending 1,000 dollars on something that might not be authentic. This is where you guys come into the picture! So does this look authentic to you guys?

If it is authentic, do you guys prefer that one or the following one.

Either way I'm getting it in navy. Be sure to tell me just how much you prefer either one and take into consideration the price difference. Thanks in advance!

Burberry outlets sell authentic trench coat made in England for $9xx retail. The one in the auction doesn't even have check lining, which basically make it look like any other generic trenchcoat in the market. There's no close-up photos of the label either which is a red flag IMO.

And for me to spend $1k on a BB trenchcoat it has to be 100% garberdine, made in England. I did buy one on ebay last year for half that price.

The thing with this one though is that this particular model isn't supposed to have check lining, it's supposed to just say Burberry Prorsum. The label thing is of some concern though, I will say.

No label on view which is questionable and too cheap. If you like it buy, but if you really want Burberry then avoid.
