Well. Yes it was. (Originally). My suggestion all along has been to simply send it back. So.It wasn't wild_balls.

but then how would you feel if I had bid on one of your items and then 'Changed my mind'?
I have had similar requests to cancel orders as a seller myself in the past, and while I may not have liked it, did cancel the sales, issued refunds, and relisted the items.
Weren't they made in New Zealand or something as well?
Thanks, it's good to hear other peoples experiences as eBay does not really listen to sellers.Already answered that one previously:
I contacted the mentioned seller within two hours of the sale with a cancellation request after I uncovered some potentially disturbing info regarding the item.. It was the middle of the night in both of our respective time-zones, and no notification of a shipping label created, so I knew the item couldn't have possibly shipped. I was totally ignored for three days, sending messages on each, then received a shipping notice.. It was only then that I initiated the return process, followed by the seller's confusion in a message asking how I was able to do that without their approval..
This will be my last words on the matter, since I was merely using my experience as relevant info for a couple of posts regarding the OP's plight....
Thank you Scott, I just wondered how to get the wrinkles out!
Got it from ebay (street vintage malaysia).
Yes. I own a superb duo tone RM B-3. Like this A2 it does have a made in the UK label. The fleece was from the Fenland tannery, but I have no evidence that the jacket was definitely made in the UK.
Looks like the pocket on the left has loose stitching on the outside middle and the pocket on the right has loose stitching on the outside lower middle and top left.
Perhaps, but I have jackets 30-40 years old with intact stitching.The thread is made of cotton, not titanium.
It will deteriorate with time, everything does.
(Well, maybe not Lost Worlds purple unicorn leather jackets).
It’s a minimum ten year old jacket at a fraction of the current price.
You can’t expect a new jacket if you buy bargains.

Should have disclosed it, yes definitely.
But I still think the jacket is worth the current market price and I have a feeling that if the fit was good, there would be no issue and the stitching would have been overlooked.
But then again, I’m just speculating here, I’m not in either of these gentlemen shoes, I’m just expressing a personal opinion, like everyone else here.
That’s the purpose of the post, isn’t it?

I just dismantled a goatskin A2 jacket from Eastman that I still had lying around from a badly gone HWT. I had to use very sharp tiny pair of scissors and seam reaper to get rid of the stitching surrounding the zipper in order to salvage it and the leather was damaged and dried out, otherwise it would have been more difficult. I had to put all my efforts to pull out even a couple of stitches, when one breaks the other don't just go out, they're sewn on in a way that they don't fail like that. The stuff these makers use is no joke, it's not just cotton but very high quality cotton so regular wear even for 10 years won't do anything to it unless cut off on purpose. That just doesn't happen on a top maker of today.The thread is made of cotton, not titanium.

If a jacket from RMC can't take regular wear up to the point that the stitching in the pockets fails... there's something fishy going on.
