    DH Gate seller was "feiyingmotofs" Steve, jacket arrived in less than 10 days and was pretty much perfect. I can only tell you what happened with me, so what your size is ???? Good luck with it but I'm happy as a pig in shit.... From what I can establish, the sizes are based on US sizes which are slightly larger than ours, only hearsay and personal experience though.

    Well you made your point, I guess.
    Do you have any idea how much the MOCO are actually paying these factories to produce these jackets?
    If the MOCO charged a REASONABLE price for their clothing a LOT more people WOULD buy a lot more of their stuff.
    And on what basis do you claim that it is corruption? A factory in a particular country is selling over run stock. MOCO may not like it but under what LAW will they take action? Did they include in the contract that no additional stocks were to be produced and sold? They know this is going on but because they go there for the cheapest price they have now given up all the designs. If they get the shits and pull the pin over it the factories will just keep making and selling the jackets.
    Vicious cycle for the companies that take advantage of cheap manufacturing. Maybe they should have supported their own countries manufacturing industry instead.

    OH and nice of you to go to the introductions section for your first post.

    $200 or $600 ? No brainer really . If there was $100 difference then I,d probably support the dealer . If there was no choice , the $600 jacket would still be on the shelf .

    If a Harley Jacket is $600 and the ones from DH Gate are identical and $200 its a no brainer. If the shops wish to sell a jacket for say $400 then I might be tempted to buy from them but at 3 times the price? Nah.
    I reckon its better to sell 5 jackets at $300 and make $100 profit off each them then sell no jackets at $600.

    Shit i didnt know this thread was still active!!
    Mono man, I understand your passion and can se some loyalty in your post.

    The fact is that I havent deprived the Moco of any sales. There is no way that I would pay $006-$700 for a jacket. WHATEVER was written on it. I would have worn a plain generic leather that was probably made in the same dimly lit sweatshop in China alongside Harley, Dianese whatever. In fact It probably does Harley a favour as Im advertising the jacket and the product as a whole.

    As for corruption, American dealers have been threatened by HD and told to STOP dealing genuine parts by mail order to Australia. Aus sells some parts at twice the price. Prices set by HD Australia, sanctioned and backed up (by force) from the US. How honest is that?

    I put hundreds of $ over the counter at my dealer, after I have checked and compared prices. If the prices are reasonably close taking postage into account also, the local dealer gets my money. I for one cant afford to throw away my hard earned cash on a wrought!

    Now that H.D. has turned their back on the aussie worker and are getting their wheels made in china instead of Aus-I will be watching the new prices next year.May be the same thing will happen again.I owe no loyalty to either foreign country.

    Not sure which site you are dealing with and I am not going to scroll through 7 pages of a thread to find out. But my wife picked up her S size jacket in person from a shop while in Guangzhou for $130au, I think they advertise them at $145, so they are out there you just have to look around
