Please Help...Grenson Masterpiece Loafers- Seconds or not?

[holland99]

Hi Guys,

I bought this Grenson Masterpiece Loafers from ebay and it seems to me that they are seconds or even "thirds" if there is such a thing!! The seller is adamant that they are first quality and that he purchased them for £295. How ever the details on the upper looks appalling to my eyes. Could you guys offer some insight in the issue? I'm attaching a photo of the said shoe along with my church suede loafer(first quality). The grenson is the black one. Thanks in advance


Regards

Looks like an error between the upper placement onto the last

Thanks for the reply Drteatime. Exactly what I was thinking. I showed it to the owner of a local shoe store, and he commented that it is almost impossible for such an obvious flaw to slip through quality control as firsts!
