I don't think we will see the stuff…....I've written to the place that he has his mail delivered to alerting them and asking for more info, but I suspect I won't hear anything.....

[Seul]

Damn that sucks… I would try and file a fraud claim with the French police though...

[Seul]

They're French, so no English option… But let me know if you need help filling it out...

[Giles]

@Alex Can you do this?

[madmonday]

Incredible the lengths some will go to. . . at least you all will be featured in the October 2017 issue.

Seul may be onto something with his suggestion on the way to address the issue.

[Giles]

This is what we sent him:

IHM-16 - Large
IHV-22 - Navy, XL
IHE-18 - Black

This guy isn't the sharpest tool in the shed, why would you not get some denim & shirts as well, risking your life you might as well go all the way 

[Alex]

Thanks for the offer, Eli. I will look into it now and let you know if I need a hand

Unfortunately, sharper than me…..

In any other (better) news. I got contacted a couple of week ago by a stylist asking for free stuff for her famous musician boss to wear in an upcoming photo-shoot/video/album cover etc etc.

She got my normal response, the short version of which is "No, he probably earns about a million times more than the whole of Gosport put together, so go and buy it like any normal customer"

Today she placed an order for GBP1,500

Boom

he operates in a different world, cons work on people being, honest or  whatever . . . you were just trying to get a good write up & some nice press.

It happens, maybe write the loss off as a business expense 

& I'm sure you have a bunch of folks sending messages behind the scenes offering assistance & or options

[Giles]

I know.  I've just been chatting to my watch maker buddy.  He told me of a colleague in the business who sent a load of watches to "Russian Vogue"…...

I'm older, wiser and over it now.....

[Giles]

I have no idea whether I am at liberty to say or not, but saying when you shouldn't has a load more downside than not saying when you could….

[mikebarhoot]

Probably Jim Morrison. Getting ready for the "Reincarnation Tour".

[louisbosco]

john mayer?

[FurattoHeddo]

We can safely assume it's not Eric Clapton.

[Giles]

That is a safe assumption…...

[louisbosco]

if you want to find out, in due time, just go to your local music store and look through album covers

Justin Bieber- the new, wholly made over, reinvented, grown up version. In a photo shoot with Miley Cyrus in her latest bodily contortions. I've got it, no?
