Some one is clearing out

Maybe someone doesn't need originals for patterns any longer?
Maybe it's just global, er, climate change...

Quite a rough bunch of sheepskins there.

Yes, this is Simon Swaffield who until today had an Irvin website, which now says "No longer in Business". He buys up Irvins and often sells them at a loss! It does seem foolish trying to sell four at the same time on Ebay as he will not get the best possible prices for them. There are some bargains here for anyone keen on acquiring an Irvin.

Best time to sell winter jackets is end of summer. This is a buyer's time for such jackets, and with a bunch, even better. Someone also put up three D-1’s yesterday.

Sounds as if he is having a spring clear out!

All withdrawn....!!!

 

[Roughwear]

This has happened many times before. Perhaps he is a lurker here and has read the post and realises his error in listing four jackets at once?

He's quite used to close his auctions early, even canceling previous bids.
I tried to bid for his items a couple of times before, but I'm not very confident that the auction will get to the end anymore...
