Authentic Burberry Guide and Where It's Made

I have been selling Burberry for a few years and in that time, never had one geplaint about the authentic nature of my items. They all have tags and we offer 200% guarantee, we have receipts for all purchases. But today faith has turned and one buyer did not want to see our proof, he thought he was well informed on Burberry and left a negative feed back that I could just die! Fake made in China!
Yikes! but here is the truth! Burberry does produce in China, as well as Poland, Romania, India, Spain, Italy, England, and yes lots in the US. Burberry has factories all over the world and if its not their own factories they contract this work.
Please don't be alarmed such as this buyer who saw made in China and saw a red flaming arrowto charge back at me.
Burberry line of Golf is made in China, some hats are made in Romania. As much as we would all love to see everything made in Italy and England, its not. In fact they have gone this route for years now. There was a big fuss in England when Burberry closed one of their factories and moved it to China. I hate to tell you this but I worked on 7th. Ave. in New York City back in the 80's and 90's and most gepanies moved their manufacturing production to China or SouthKorea, its been a part of Global sourcing in every thing from clothes to cars.
Burberry is still a respected well made designer brand made all over the Globe. Yes there are many different ways to tell on their labels even how they are attached to the clothing, quality of fabric, style and many other things but---please when unsure and you are not the expert don't just jump to conclusions. It is the kiss of death!Very unfair to leave a gement because you think its a fake and made in China has no barrier.
1.Ask for proof most items sold on e-bay are from Burberry outlets and department stores. So allsellers should have receipts.
2. There is a Burberrylegal department in New York City that handles claimsif someone sells fakes, you can send the item to them for authentication. It's illegal and they will prosecute. The Burberry sales associates are not allowed to say if its a fake or not. So taking your items to a store will not help.
Burberry Limited (trademark violation dept.)
444 Madison Ave
New York, NY 10022
Hope this helps buyers and sellers gemunicate!
