I ordered a jacket from Amazon and it's turned up today (via Sports Direct) with a shop security tag still in place. Any way I can get this off without a. Taking it back to the shop or b. Destroying my new clobber??
they are full of ink, and when it explodes you have no chance. The store should sort it if you take proof. Dont attempt yourself
sharp pair cuttlers under silver dome just gotta try not cut material though ive done it befor. dont think that an ink security tag is it? thought they were just electronic them ones?
Ben - no it's not an England shirt! It's a tracky top. I've googled it too, but there's all sorts of weird answers along the lines of burning it or smash it with a hammer! I thought I'd ask on here with pics of the actual tag in question.
If you've got a reciept take it to a shop, works on a powerful magnet i was told once. I've removed that type before, its a pain in the rear and all the time you take care the hole will end up far bigger as it gets stretched every time you hold it.
either get a really really strong magnet or take it back. some of the tags have the ink in but dont show i/label it.
can't take it back - it's from Internet land. There a few sportsdirects around here, but they're not massively close, so I'd rather just get it off. Hence why I bought it on line and not in the shop in the first place.
Ill loan you my angle grinder if you want? But seriously, dont chicken out and bring it to a store for them to do it, have at it your self and show us all
One of these going on a tag of a similar style shown on You Tube: Neodymium Disc Magnet Item number: 220623124279 Or I'll order a them and just post you one, share the cost - 80p then i can pop down the shops and start "lifting".
You're lucky!!! That has snapped off which unlike the one I had there was no way it would snap off, as it would simply bend or get chewed with the plier cutters. Good job though!
