I rarely buy anything off ebay, especially clothes... but recently needed several suits and my size (38s) is difficult to find so I've been taking chances.
So far, I've had bad luck. The first suit I purchased appeared mismatched for jacket and pants.
My second attempt on ebay, the suit was sold as NWOT, but it appears used. It has signs of wear on the collar, sleeves, and pockets (including pilling of the wool in these areas), and smells like chemicals (dry cleaners). It also doesn't look like the same suit that was shown on pictures. I'm curious how much less a used suit is typically worth? Should I ask the seller for a partial refund or simply ask to return the suit completely? I paid a not so amazing price (by SF or Gilt standards) for it mainly b/c it was my proper size.
No more ebay for me, SF people and Gilt seem more reliable.
