Philo's point was that if it is so hard to discern flaws in the seconds at the outlet, how could QC let these go out at full retail, not that the OP bought seconds.

Perhaps it's my age. But I have long been accustomed to waiting -- sometimes more than a year -- for custom & bespoke orders. No, it's not always that long ... but there have been times.

If it's worth it, it's worth the wait. Although in this case, appearently it wasn't.

Exactly. I wasn't trying to imply that JLP was foisting seconds on the op, just that they seem to have a very stringent qc standard for rtw, not sure how these made it through unless no one is looking at the bespoke stuff before it goes out the door.
