it definitely says it's pre-owned in the listing

also it looks pretty uninspiring, even for £130

i'm not a huge chester barry fan at the best of times, it's too full and I think a bit of a A&S rip off

I wish these sellers would proofread their listings! It says "new" at the top, and "gently used" in the description. That's straying into deception territory.
Yesterday I sent notifications to 6 different sellers that their pull-over sweaters were listed as "cardigans".

How hard can it be to get that right?

The title says new and the item description says New With Tags.

I didnt read the item condition since i thought it was irrelevant because i assumed it was new.
