I bought this beautiful long Kaliko cardigan off ebay- it was one I’d been trying to get for a while, but kept getting outbid, and I was delighted when I got it in the end for a lot less than I had previously bid.
It was delivered to my work, and initially I was delighted- I opened the package and it seemed brand new and as described. So, being obsessive-compulsive as I am, I galloped off to leave positive feedback for the item. Hmmmmmppphhhh.
I got it home- next day, went to wear it with a dress I have, and as soon as I put it on, I noticed this funky smell, kind of like mothballs. It was rather strong. I put it through a woolen wash, but the smell stuck. In desparation, I put it through a normal wash. Twice.
So- it still stinks. And I am left with an expensive designer cardigan that I frantically want to wear (and which, I might add, looks FAB) but which stinks. STINKS!!!!!! I am so pissed off! I have bought loads of things on ebay which have been less than 100% satisfactory, but this is SO annoying! Especially as I gave positive feedback! Grrrrrrr!
