Price increase at Eastman Leather

[John Lever]

Always good to remember these are used clothes

The second hand market has now been effectively killed off as sellers check the ELC website and ask a silly price for a 15 year old jacket that originally cost half the price of a new one today. There is a RW B3 with worn out cuffs on ebay BIN 1250. GBP
Realistically it is worth 450 GBP

Yes but these jackets aren't selling for the silly asking prices. People always look at what someone else is asking for an item and price what they are selling on that. But they almost never check what it's actually selling for. In other words what it's worth to a buyer.

 

[John Lever]

Of course there are 2 prices the asking price and the selling price

And the only one that matters is the latter.

Well, I better get my butt in line at the GW cue, because it's time to stop drinking the Eastman Koolaid.

With some jackets, GW is actually cheaper than Eastman!

Most jackets, IMHO, although import duties may change that calculus.

A package from JC, is the one thing in this world I'll pay those fees with a smile on my face over.
