What followed was a rapid, extremely friendly mail from the seller (in excellent German), who informed me that the sock has been sent. To alleviate my anger, he was willing to give with a discount. None 2 days later I found the sock already in my mailbox. She looks exactly like the picture, smells neutral and has done an excellent job. The fabric feels super, and they really what makes her!
"March Barley" is recommended as a seller without reservation, since I truly felt like a customer treated royally and the delivery was faster than from so many retailers within Germany. Before that, I take my hat.
