Meandering round the internet I decided to check some of the largest stores that sell leathergoods on the web.
One top national store group currently offers two truly unexceptional items -
a half-flapover, top handle, single compartment leather briefcase and an attache case, the ultimate British classic style in their ....
"COLLEZIONE INSPIRED BY ITALY"
Oh dear.
Whilst this is not misrepresentation, it is a wild clutch at the straw, endeavouring to connect Italian design flair to two quite ordinary products, the first made in Calcutta and the second in Shenzen.
However they are in good company, because most retailers are either ignorant of the truth, or "economical" with it.
When you see these phrases "Italian leather" "Italian design" "Italian style" the seller is implying the item comes from Italy.
Italian leather is exported to China, for bags to be made.
Italian designs and styles are copied all over the world.
The product IS NOT MADE IN ITALY...but the seller does their utmost to imply the connection.
If you see a Visconti "Monza" luxury Italian leather purse or "Milano" wallet, have a guess where they are made please.
Great brand, excellent value, superb quality - Italian as a curry.
In the same way, why on earth do sellers offer "free delivery"?
There is no such thing in a normal commercial transaction.
If the post or a courier service is used, it is paid for.
By the customer.
The retailer either sells it for £10 + PP, or £12.99 delivered price.
The buyer pays.
Come the sales, there's the wonderful "we pay your VAT" - think about it - more nonsense.
Genuine 80% reductions - from an original price that was hugely inflated upfront!
And so on.
OK - here's the point.
In this website if it says it was "Made In Italy" that's true.
It's plain that it costs you £6.95 for your purchase to be packed and delivered.
A reduction is genuine, and it's evident why the price is lowered.
Inspired?
Not really.
Customers are rarely taken in by exaggerated claims and daft offers.
Truth is the best policy.
