Saw a program recently about counterfeit goods.
Canada Goose being copied(poor copies btw).
The flash sale real or rip off?

Rip-off. Just hunt around for where they have to write a few sentences… So in the exchanges bumpf…

1. Although we make the promise for 100% hassle free return, it will be appreciated if you considerate seriously before making and order lest unnecessary waste of time and money.

2. Please contact our customer service first to obtain the return address.

3. If the returned package get lost during the shipment, we will not be responsible for such missing. So the original post office receipt must be kept to claim compensation for the loss.

Think you already knew though didn’t you? 🙂

EDIT: Of course it could be Junkyard doing some import/export stuff on the side, in which case he’s come a long way.

If it seems to good. ..

Try the contact us.

So many fakes about. If they’re not then a lot of parents are buying their kids genuine Canada Goose jackets 😯

Fake – mission statement gives it away: our simplest goal is to show how hard-working and together, we can create a better future for the people in need of a pair of shoes belonging to himself or herself.

Seem to be based in France, although realistically could be anywhere.

Avoid

Oh well, at least that’s better than a flouro jobsworth jacket or one of those horrible long football managers’ jackets with the Umbro chevrons on the back that everyone was wearing a few years ago. Nothing shouted “chav” louder.

Gutted , thought you were going to say those that crap everywhere and block the roads as they wander around had all flown back home!!

Yup it couldn’t be any more fake

As has been said, domain registered in France and only a month ago so highly suspicious

I thought this was going to be a rant about the slide in quality of Goose Island IPA after they were bought out by AB Inbev.

I was looking around for a winter parka for ages and finally settled on one of these from Decathlon.

It may not have the Canada Goose branding but it is a seriously good quality jacket. Really warm, waterproof and well made plus with the usual Decathlon guarantee.

I’ve e-mailed them asking for discount shipping on a bulk buy, so hope to find out where they are really.

Also notified Canada Goose so they can start to take the site down

Canada goose have an office in the UK now to contact them to ask but those are obviously fakes at that price. If you are offered one it’s easy to check the hologram tag and look at the quality of the sewn badge.
They are great jackets, it’s finally been cold enough to wear mine, was wondering if it was going to get any use this year.

http://www.parkasaleuk.eu/ have a similar awful site if you are after nasty stuff. At least you can trust them – they say so on their own web page 🙂

Well done muddyground, was planning to do so after the school run. Haven’t had time to scrutinise the website but at first glance it looks legit(not the pricing though).
The program I saw had two people in a “cold room” , one with a fake and one with a real one .
Needless to say,as the temp dropped one of the two started to feel the cold…so much so that if it was a real life situation in the Arctic regions it could have been a fatal bargain.
Quite blatant by calling the website (coat)canadagoose , and not something cheeky like Canada Grouse!

Needless to say,as the temp dropped one of the two started to feel the cold…so much so that if it was a real life situation in the Arctic regions it could have been a fatal bargain.

But like Henri Loyd, Barbour, and Bellstaff, the number of people actually going to the artic whilst wearing one is about as relevant as how many Vende’ have been won in Henri Loyd gear to Wayne in his Corsa.

An easy way to sus out the likelihood of legitimacy without doing a WHOIS is to look for the UK address / contact phone numbers on the site.

“Contact Us?” – Nope, just a web form.

“About Us?” – Nope, just a load of incoherent nonsense that’s either been written by someone not fluent in English, or badly translated from another language.

And nothing lurking at the bottom of the homepage.

That’s pretty much enough right there to answer your question, took literally five seconds and three clicks.

It’s back up again is it?
My son fell for the same site at the end of last year, the jacket actually turned up, it’s well made but not worth £166 at all.

Seems to be a common e-mail amongst the fake Goose fraternity [bestserviceleen@gmail.com] which is also involved in hacking various websites. Needless to say it seems to be based in China – although again this is just an unvalidated registration address, so they could be anywhere. Only sure way to find out is to buy something and trace it back to the point of origin, then go out and knock on the door. Any takers??
