  1. Speaking of umami burgers, I just found this pic on my phone from sometime last year I think, it was voted Australia's best burger for 2011. 

     

    "Umami Burger – 200g Wagyu and Angus beef cooked to medium rare, Umami rub, brown mushroom sauce, gruyere, caramelised onions, oven roasted tomato and a parmesan crisp between a sweet brioche bun."
     
    From the review:
    When everyone is jamming Wagyu into their burgers as a fancy wallet emptying tactic, he stops and reconsiders, telling us that a “100% Wagyu pattie has no place in a burger. You end up losing a lot of beefy flavoursâ€. By mixing his Wagyu with Angus Beef he is able to achieve the best of both worlds – the fatty softness of the Wagyu whilst delivering the beefy kick of the Angus.
     
    Full details here:

    It was really good but I think since the pattie was so big it's really quite heavy and made me think of it as something you have only once in a while.

    After eating it, you won't feel like such a big burger for a while lol.

    Carol Christian Poell Dead-End Jeans

     

    Model: JM/2625
    Colour: 10 (BLACK)
    Material: KIT-D 100% Cotton

     

    These jeans here:
    http://www.darklandsberlin.com/site/product/mens/carol-christian-poell-overlock-one-piece-dead-end-jeans

     

    Seems I've slimmed down my thighs a little and hence I want to trade my pair in size 52 which fits a large 48 for a size 50.

    If anyone has a pair in 50 and wants to size up PM me and I'll take pics, get measurements, etc. I've only worn these probably around 5 times since buying them brand new at retail. Still have all tags and garment bag.

     

    Measurements:

     

    Waist: 43 cm
    Inseam: 85 cm
    Total length: 112 cm
    Thigh: 30 cm
    Hem: 18 cm

     

    SOLD

    I'm so glad Paypal was able to review this case so fast and properly.
    Good to know their seller protection is not so bad after all.
  4. Having an issue with cupdrew.

     

    I sold him a pair of size 48 Label Under Construction signals washi j-pants with measurements listed in my thread and a detailed description. I even took additional measurements for him, even knee width which is kind of a strange request (outside of the raw denimhead circles).

    Throughout the conversation in was pretty obvious that he has most likely no experience with LUC pants since he was linking pics to LUC curved inseam pants (a completely different cut) asking about whether they fit like those. I then linked a fit pic of someone wearing j-pants.

    Anyways I believe he was expecting them to fit like slim raw denim or something with the measurements he was asking for. He received them and now is complaining they fit too loose and wants to return them which I think is unreasonable since these are OG j-pants cut, they will never fit like slim jeans.

    I also think he's making it up and using it as an excuse when saying my measurements were way off because I know I measured them carefully multiple times, the way I've always measured my garments and I've had many references on here and SZ.

     

    He claims the waist is 43cm and thighs 31cm, members here with experience with LUC j-pants, please chime in that there is no way a size 48 pair of J-pants will measure that big. I think he must be measuring them wrong so I asked him for a pic of how he measured them. Here's the pic: 

    http://imgur.com/a/Rz66j

     

    Now at first you think they measure 12" but if you look carefully, you can see he rolled the pant leg over so the back of the pants has come to the front at the side.

     

    With the construction of these pants, the back rise comes a bit lower than the front at the crotch, so yes that is the crotch seam there in the middle but the side of the pants is where that 11" mark is. He has just pulled the lowest part of the crotch from the back up so he could roll the side out and make it look like that. I can tell by where that side seam is, and I guess because I fold them in half with the front on the inside and then put them through a clothes hanger, the back has faded a bit more over time than the front. I can see the color change where the ACTUAL side of the pants are.

     

    I think this is a case of someone buying a pair of pants without know what the cut fits like, doesn't like the fit and wants to return them.

    This is not a store, it's a secondhand marketplace so I think that's just unreasonable.

     

    What do you guys think?

     

    Also he's complaining they are not true black, well these washi j-pants are not true black pants, even brand new.

    In fact, the colour code for these pants is not black. I listed the colour code: 9 which is not black.

    I described them as dark grey/greyish black. Another sign that he just didn't know much about these.
