Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?
See email chain below from bottom up. An outrageous example of knowingly misrepresenting "luxury" products advertised as fine leather when the fine print on the items lists them as faux leather (vinyl)
 
--------------------------------------------------------
 
that is totally an unsatisfactory response. You are continuing to promote this sale as consisting of hand stitched leather bags made from full grain leather even though the items are vinyl. The description should be corrected or the sale pulled off your site as soon as you were made aware of this glaring discrepancy.

This is truly a misrepresentation (see below underlined and in red) since all the products are listed as being made of faux leather

These guys are definitely out to rip off consumers. In response to my complaint they A) changed the name of the manufacturer and B) declared these vinyl bags to be "eco-friendly leather". Again read from the bottom up
-------------------------
 
"English Eco-Friendly Leather Bags"???
 
You guys are definitely out to rip-off consumers. What part of the phrase "vinyl is not leather" doesn't make sense to you? These are NOT leather bags, eco-friendly or otherwise.
