1. Sorry. Yes.
I'd really like to see that $150 loophole closed. It's shitty for the industry to tell people that they're buying faux when they're not, and it's shitty for buyers to keep importing ANY fur from China. Big hint for those folks: if you have to obscure what you're doing from consumers, it's not a good thing.

I'm really sorry, Shell.



And why the hell are they calling it "animal hair?" It's fur. Losers. :mad:

2. Luckily for me I don't go for the whole fur look.
I would never wear real fur, but even the fake stuff doesn't appeal to me. I think it is horrible, though, to deceive people into believing that they aren't wearing animal. I can't believe they could have even gotten away with that.
