I find it off putting (apart from the dubious authenticity) that you can see the seller's bare foot in the photo. I just don't like feet. Can't make out the gender which is a bit worrying.



If this was genuine, the person should give the jumper back? What about if Richie comes back and his "favourite" jumper has gone?

I have one very like that. £300, lads, genuine. There's a label in it and everything.*

*label may or may not specify owner's name

So you're saying that Richey may have a designer range of these jumpers? This is beginning to make sense now !

I emailed the seller to ask if they could provide proof, this was their response:

I don't have a picture of him in this jumper,but it really could not get more Genuine than coming direct from Rachel's (Richey's) sister husband from whom I used to work with.Given to me as a devoted Manics Fan.
If it was not genuine I certainly would not have accepted it.

No pictures even though it was "wore in various photo shoots and his personal fave"?!

So...he just asked Rachel's husband if he could have a jumper of Richey's one day and the reply was 'Sure, why not?' It's all so SIMPLE now!

So he wore it in loads of photoshoots (ahem) but doesn't have a photo (even though he's a devoted Manics fan). Why wouldn't he accept a free jumper if it wasn't genuine. I'd be grateful for any free clothes so long as they're clean whoever they belonged to. I am poor.

Bad grammar. Kind of makes sense that he'd spell "Richie" that way.

If my sister's husband started stealing my favourite jumpers for their work pals I'd be pretty pissed

Lol, I once worked with a bloke who used to pinch his sister's knickers for his workmate because the workmate fancied her but thats another story for another thread
