Dear James, Yesterday morning I was out and about with friends looking for somewhere to get a Full English when I stumbled across an ED shop that I'd never been into before. I had a small moment of excitement until, on closer inspection, I saw that it was selling fake designer goods. It's bad enough that we seem to pay over the odds in ED for anything from a bacon butty to a lightbulb without having this sort of blatant rip-off. Whilst I'm sure that a lot of girls would spot the good on offer for the nasty fakes that they are, some bloke wanting to surprise his partner might not know the difference and might part with the ?280 being asked for something wich has, at best, a ?20 - ?30 value. I telephoned Trading Standards this morning to pass on all the info and they said they would direct it to the right team. Trading Standards are a mystery to me and I'm worried that they may decide not to act. If I PM you all the details I wonder whether you would please shake a pointy stick in their general direction? I want that shop raided and stripped of all its rip-off fakes and I really hope to God that nobody in ED has been fooled and paid over the odds for this tatt. Thank you in advance and, yes, I am 100% sure that they are fakes. Px
