I will be waiting for the online sale! Looks like it is going to be spending time while the interest rate is now only 0.25%......

From Ken:

There’s only four weeks to go before our Grand Theft Aero Sale Day, taking place on Saturday 20th August. The main Sale will consist of approx. 150 jackets new and used Aero Jackets across a wide range of styles and fairly equally spread across the 38-48 size range with enough 36’s and 50’s to merit a visit and even a few 34” and some size 52's all at amazing prices.

Although we are aware we are asking customers to travel in good faith, we feel we can’t release the full range of sizes, styles and prices at this point we’ve already having customers ask for pre sale purchases, reserving jackets etc and refusal can only offend.

I hope you all know you can trust us to see your trip is well worth the time and cost! These jackets include a considerable number of relabelled 4oz Chrome Excel Steerhide jackets in addition to all the jackets that were stolen and recovered, a selection which also includes a few jackets from other makers, Buzz Rickson, Eastman, Iron Heart etc. As a general guide, the used relabelled “Storse” jackets will be priced at around £300, these are all in amazing condition as it appeared that those who had broken in their mis-labelled jackets were happy to keep them, the vast majority of replaced jackets were only lightly broken in. The few we’ve sold on our regular website Sale page have sold around the £500/£550 mark so £300 is a huge discount There are a lot of A-2s particularly in smaller sizes, there will be plenty around the £200/£250 region Please bear in mind, these jackets were stolen by someone who chose them carefully over many years from the full stock of Aero, it’s obvious that he wouldn’t nick anything but the best Regular unused Aero jackets from the recovered stolen stock will be no more than £450 while many will be considerably less. As a further encouragement to travel, anyone who makes the trip but can’t find a jacket in the sale will be able to get 20% of any regular Aero item in our stockroom on the day of the sale. For those who can’t make it on the day there will be an on line sale on Monday 22nd, of all the items not sold in the main Saturday 'bricks and mortar' sale. A full list of what will be available for the online sale will be posted on our news page on Sunday 21st. While both sales will include a large quantity of Jeans, Levi Vintage, Lee, Wrangler Bluebell, for those who make the journey to Galashiels there will be also be lots of items that won’t be on any list, these include Aero samples and one offs, some Kid’s jackets, a good number of Ladies jackets from the development of that range, lots of original vintage jackets, both Military and Civilian and many end of line Shirts, Boots, Knitwear etc. A full list with styles, sizes, measurements etc will be available on Microsoft Excel during the week before the sale Trains run from Edinburgh Waverley every 30 minutes, and with many budget airlines flying into Edinburgh and Glasgow don’t miss this opportunity to be at this ‘not to be missed’ sale.

LIST OF INDIVIDUAL SALE ITEMS NOW AVAILABLE

It's just over a week ‘til The Grand Theft Aero Sale and we've have been inundated with requests for a list of jackets.

This has been a massive job, so we're not quite finished the listing of all the jackets, it's around 90% complete and is available on request, please email Christine on [email protected] using the subject "Aero Sale List Request" and we'll send this list to you.

There are still some larger sizes to be added, mostly size 44"s and there are quite a few pre -production samples in sizes 38"/40" to be added as well.

A more comprehensive list will be available in the second half of next week we hope. Unfortunately due to the levels of stock we can't provide specific details of additional items which will be available, but there will be lots of end of range items, denim, footwear and a selection of other vintage for sale.

Prices will be in the region of 33% to 50% off the original retail prices.

Details of what will be available online on Monday 22nd August, will be available as soon as possible following the ‘bricks & mortar' sale, and should be published on our website on Sunday 21st.
