Would you return these gloves?

mmh i dont know.. i have white RST gloves and had them for a while now.. they still white (including the leather) and not cream as yours look. to me they also look as if "they have been around a bit" - as in laying on a shelf for the last 5 years.

if i received those as white gloves... i'd be sending them back .. cos white is white and cream is cream and black is black and u get the picture

If you are not happy ask for a refund .... for a £5 saving I would have gone to my local bike shop and bought what I could see.

The thing with fleabay is alot of sellers are clearing old stock or have fake goods. The chance you take.

Good luck with the refund.

Apart from the cost of return postage I expect. That always annoys me.

eBay is getting worse and worse, it's becoming more of a scammers playground and shows no sign of getting better..

Another good reason to support your local bike shop.

I 99% never buy anything I have not seen.

I nearly always go to the local shop. Those glove look like they have been in a workshop where the mechanic smokes 40 a day.

I never by any bike kit without trying it on first. Gloves, helmet, boots, even jacket and trousers - it's kit that I'm gonna spend a lot of time in, and it has to be comfortable. I'm particularly picky with gloves - too small and they make your hands ache, too large and you can't control the bike properly.

I bought my latest helmet via internet. Saved me a tidy sum. I'll buy where I can get it cheapest.

On a seperate note though it does prove you are taking a gamble. The box the helmet came in had seals on it stating not returnable if seals broken. I am guessing had I opened the box and found damage to the helmet, I would not have been able to return it. But then I would not have been able to confirm if the helmet was undamaged without breaking the seals to take it out and inspect it.

It wasn't damaged so I'm happy.

I wont buy anything high value off Ebay unless its local and I can pick it up in person,or get one of my extended family to have a look for me.
As for gloves I bought a supply of several pairs for £5 each at the BMF a few years ago and I am still using them.
