>I expect most sites to reuse art from other places
If they are selling a branded product, yes. Kult Of Athena sells a GDFB brand gambeson, and uses a stock GDFB product pic. This is shady Indian bullshit using another brand's stock picture, with a shitty watermark on it. Warning flag number 1 here. They show you an awesome pic, and send you crap, and make it cost so much to return it, that you're fucked. pretty standard.

>so that part doesn't both me too much.
caveat emptor. You will learn from your mistake if you waste the money.

>How can you tell 1 and 3 are polyester-wool filled? Familiarity with the product from past experience?
Both, from people buying who don't know better.

Here are some better produced, identical products, made by an eastern European company using organic (usually cotton/wool blend), from a trustworthy websites, for cheaper than amazon.

>You could say I'm a Euro
Does not help.

>what do you think of Indian blacksmiths
If you buy from a America/Euro company who produces in india, and makes sure they make what they are being paid for, then its actually pretty decent.

If you buy from the Indians directly, they WILL rip you off. Pic related.
