    1. Just order the fucker from the States - it will be here in 10 days - if ordered local it will be 10 plus weeks ........

    2. Are you 'really' looking for one in NZ so you can try it on for size and then order the correct size from the USA? tehehe
    1. I am tempted.
    2. I don't have to try on. I own the brand already, and if its an XL on the label, then its an XL. Same jacket, same factory.

    I did. I want the same jacket I have on. Which they don't make anymore.

    The question posed then was, what have they replaced it with. I got very little information on this question. No I will look into it. No I will ring and find out.

    This was during the week, in a fairly quiet shop or three. I was given very limited information on what was available.

    I worked in retail, for 15 years. If I didn't have the information at hand, I at least made an effort to find out. Whether it got a sale or not, I was at least better informed afterwards.

    A gentleman in the USA, over the interweb, gave me more answers in ten minutes, than what I was given all day.

    BUT I do not want to buy off shore, unless I am forced to.

    I'm not saying they get you every time, but when doing price comparisons its worth not forgetting about.
