I am finding too many differences in Asian sizing of clothing

The sizing in Asian clothing for sale is very bad and has nothing to do with Australian and European sizing.  We are finding the sizes changing all the time and having been in the clothing industry for 40years  and manufacturers need to be more honest in their dealings. Many of us will not buy due to this.    There are some that do thr right thing but not many enough.   They should not be on EBay if they cant be honest and professional. Carolyn Hammond

Simple Solution Carolyn, Dont buy. Buy Locally made outfits that you know the sizing of.

The only way to buy Asian clothing is to use the measurements.  If the seller does not list measurements then ask or don't buy.  Simple really.

Even Australian brands vary enormously.  I only ever buy from sellers who provide measurements.

welcom to the future of ebay. chinese sellers are flooding in and are oblivious to any rules of fair trading and ebay is much too busy in the safe washing itself in lovely loot to care what any insignificant buyer thinks to do anything to upset the new breed of seller. they put in the 180 day money back guarntee and think thats fixed it.

I've learnt just to buy XL- XXL sized dresses from China, If the XL doesn't fit my cousin scores a dress. It's all in the risk and fun in ebaying really quality included, you often get what you pay for 🙂
