A Chinese brand based in Guangzhou in Southern China. Their products are made with top-notch materiels sourced from Japan, USA, Europe. I grew so interested in this brand recently and made multiple purchases. For those who have experience with other Chinese brands, most notably, Bronson, as they established an English website for the convenience of western consumers. I would tell you Ray Kwok is at a whole different level from most Chinese brands.

Below is the information about the D-1 jacket I have for sale
SZ 42 Shoulder: 20.1" Chest: 23.2" Sleeve: 24.8" Length: 24.8" Hem: 22.0"

Detailed Specifications:
- Australian Raw Skin, Manufactured by COLOMER, 16mm thickness fur (UK Company acquired by China)
- Collar Leather Strap: Tochigi Leather SUMMER OIL Cowhide (Japan)
- Seam Reinforcement: Shinki Hikaku – SF Horsehide (Japan)
- Natural Canvas Pocket Bag
- WALDES Main Zipper with Rivet Reinforcement (Japan)
- WALDES 1940s Vintage Pendulum-Style Pocket Zippers (Japan)

I am surprised how well the jacket was made especially at such a price point. It's literally comparable with Real McCoy, Buzz Rickson's, and the like both in terms of the craftsmanship and the material.

I have it for sale here not at a profit.
My asking price is how much I paid including shipping, transaction fee, exchange rate fee etc..
$575 including international shipping.
Trackable Post Office Airmail
Paypal FF prefered, 4.5% extra for a Paypal invoice.
Ships from Taiwan.
Will ship the item as a gift and declare a value of no more than $100 as required by our local post office in compliance with US tariff policy. in a nutshell, There will not be tariff for this item.

Hi, are you a private seller or a shop? I was interested in the Ray Kwok brand as you described it and had a look around on the web, the only things that came up were from a Taipei shop called Alaska Outfitters, that shares your name and contact information on Facebook and Instagram among other sites, and has the same items, among others, that you are selling here.

My apologies in advance if I've misunderstood.

Yes,
The facebook fan page is mine. And, it's in the very early stage of business. I truly admire the quality of Ray Kwok products. Actually, I also established an eBay store just last month, but Not many items can be listed due to new seller's selling limits.

However, I never use the forum here as a commercial purpose. I sell only my or my friends personal items, as I believed that's the forum's policy. There are one or two members that contacted me through private conversation, asking me to order Ray Kwok products for them though.

Well, from your 678 posts, 675 are in the classifieds, 1 is a post promoting a brand you started selling in your ebay shop and only 2 are outside the classifieds. Claiming that you "never use the forum for commercial purpose" is a bit hard to defend, isn't it?
Hey, Bro, think about it this way.
I've been a FL member for many years, and Ray Kwok-related posts is probably 1 or 2 % of all my posts. and, These mere several posts are from recent several weeks during all the years being a member here. Does it turn me into a profit-seeking exploitive type of member? I am really just an enthusiast with a very large personal collection of constantly 100+ jackets and pairs of boots let alone other small items. in Sub-tropical and very limited American Heritage consumer-base Taiwan, I am a weird guy who shell expensive and even unnecessary (in other's opinion) bucks on 4oz leather pants, padded leather pants, shearling jackets, grizzly jackets and 16" tall boots or the likes. it would be more efficient if my items are posted on western forum where people from North America and Europe can view. in perspective of the quantity of my collection. Are my posts too many? And, almost all my classified posts are pre-owned and used items. So, I am just a heavy user of the classified, but, it doesn't necessarily mean I am a profit-making business member.

I have a practical personality. meaning although constantly accruing all these collection, I have no intention of posting on social media (fox example, IG or any forum) just for feeling good or superior or self-pleasure (But by no means I'm saying everyone does it for this same reason). That's why I rarely participate in discussions besides classifieds. When I post, it has to have a practical purpose for me to spend the time, as I'm a time sensitive workaholic. And, if the item is intended for sale, It's not appropriate to post it in Outerwear sections. That's all.

Your advise is certainly appreciated. I just don't know whether FL membership status can be changed from personal to vendor. I'll contact the management soon to find out. And, I can understand maybe you think members should contribute to the forum's resources other than use the classified. I also wonder whether there's a forum policy that members cannot use only classified and not other part of the forum. or Maybe some kind of un-written rule here? I need to be enlightened.

The photos are part of my collection. absolutely not to brag, just to let you know I truly have many stuff, So it's not that unusual for me to use classified often.

Wow, your closet must smell like a luxury leather showroom Meanwhile, I’ve only got 11 jackets and my wife is already threatening to put my collection on clearance the second I leave for another deployment. At this point, every new jacket feels less like a purchase and more like a high-risk investment
