    PayPal USA new rule....1099-K form

    Thanks, never checked that, but it looks like the logs only cover the last few months. Why can't paypal just make a quick peek feature and let you see if you're over limit or not?

    PayPal USA new rule....1099-K form

    Hi, how did you find out your gross payment total and number of transactions? I did a quick check on google and it seems as if paypal is keeping the figures hidden from sellers. In that IRS page you linked, it mentions that paypal will keep track of your transactions and gross payment total and...

    Where to buy material or ready-made cuffs and waistband?

    Thanks for your reply jaydee. Yup, atleast it's a nice set of wool knits, if it were poly it'd be a different story. Maybe just a heads up for people ordering through G&B in the future; make sure they know which knits you want and triple check to make sure they get it right :!:

    Where to buy material or ready-made cuffs and waistband?

    Thanks for your reply. Reporting back on having completed the transaction. I have just received the knits from G&B today and to my surprise the waistbands are not the bi-weave design as used on their M422As. I had specifically requested the M422A knits and had received the plain 60's style...

    Where to buy material or ready-made cuffs and waistband?

    Reviving this thread for a moment. Sent F/S aka G&B an email over the weekend looking to purchase several sets wrist cuffs and waistbands. Perhaps I am impatient, but I figured to hopefully get a reply today. None so far. From the looks of the original post, G&B took several days to reply to...

    M48 boots, what's a good way to rejuvenate them?

    deeb7, thanks a lot for the great info! The M48 boots are the ones that I believe replaced the M42/M43's. So aesthetically, they are basically a cross between the M42 service shoe and the paratrooper boot. Russet red & brown in color.

    M48 boots, what's a good way to rejuvenate them?

    Hi guys, got myself a pair of these babies. Forgive me if I glossed over a boot care thread (if such a thread exists, please throw a link and I'll be on my way), but I'm just wondering if there's anything specific that can help me revive these boots. The leather is in pretty good shape, with...

    Random thought of the day: The aging of 70's/E-series G-1s

    Hey guys, just had a thought and wondered if you guys care to chime in. I've got a 70's Brill Bros. G-1 that will be a daily beater of sorts (when this awful weather cools down) and I couldn't help but think of how these cow jackets will break-in in the long run. Of course there are tons of...

    General Q for cleaning nylon jackets

    Hi guys, just wondering about cleaning ma-1s and l-2bs. I remember this being mentioned somewhere, but can't seem to find it. Is it safe to say that these are machine washable and if yes or no, what tips do you guys have to ensure a good & safe cleaning? I've tossed a cwu-45p in the washer...

    LOL, thanks. This thread has pushed me over the edge and I'll have to start rummaging some sites for images.

    Sporting an A-2

    Nice pic! I remember seeing a thread with a pic. of JFK in a G-1 and I know G.W. Bush has worn his share of A-2s and CWU jackets. There was even Cheney in a N-3B. Okay, I'm not gonna lie, I want some pics of presidents in flight jackets! Does anyone have a link or two they can post up?
