I'm embarrassed for most of these replies. The guy comes in asking if it has value for a reason.
It seems like I have to daily say to someone, "we ask questions because WE DONT ALREADY KNOW THE ANSWERS".
Had I seen the OP before all these condescending sarcastic responses, I'd have given a simple honest answer.
The bulk of these responses are pathetic prior to the last three before this one

Oh, come on! For some reason I don't
He didn't even bother to say hello, but immediately asked for the price in the title... he was probably saving electronic ink and his time.
How many of them there were and will be, an endless story...

Another moralizer, preacher of morality...
Did the guy ask if the jacket had any historical interest? Did he ask if it should be preserved?
No, he just asked how much it was worth, without even saying hello.
I answered him (the first): nothing!
Financially.
Apparently, he doesn't care about sentimental value.

As for you and your judgment of finding us pathetic, I return it to you, politely, even if with a certain enthusiasm!

Well, blocking any new members posts or removal of these which mods or "elevator leather gimps" find not proper is a big no-no in my opinion.

Just ignoring answering should be good enough.

I remember some very great examples here when people asked about a potential value like this rare Korean war patched jacket but these inquiries about value fir cook pieces are über rare ;)

Not blocking all… just some…those with no regards to respect of basic social behaviors… those are real never come back “ Eintagsfliegen”…
BTW , where is this author with his super Korea war jacket.?
“Veni vidi vici..”…
Asked for a price here… sold it on crapbay ( the last is understandable since no takers here ).
