Sketch Armani Reportage Guys - Antonio Francesco Rip off trying to guy italian guy driving beige suv directions to lincoln tunnel, paid 600 for what I thought were 4500 worth of three reportage jackets from a designer Happened In Nyc, Business Card Says Milano Italy New York
Working late, got out at 830 or so and walking at 47th and lex, guy pulls over in a beige suv and asks directions to the Lincoln Tunnel. Very friendly Italian guy saying he's trying to get hometo Italy. He says he's a fashion designer with these jackets he doesn't want to bring back to italy with him because he doesn't want to have to pay tax on them.
He showed me credit cards, passport, plane tickets, everything and the jackets had the authentication #'s and everything. I completely bought the whole thing. Ended up paying 600 for 3 very nice looking jackets perfect for a family member's birthday of mine.
They came with the right wrappers, tags, and everything that he said totalled a worth of 4500. Today has been the absolute worst day, I have never felt so stupid.
I took his business card, it said
Franceso: Manger
Lino: Model

I am not sure how to link this to the other messages already reporting this (Which is how I found out I got ripped off because it's definitely the exact same situation as others have described, except Robert from NYC only paid 60, not 600!) The entry i'm referring to is Robert's Rebuttal titled SKETCH ARMANI REPORTAGE GUYS.
