Some replaced parts and minor flaking. Seller's description seems straightforward.

I would bet my bottom dollar that that jacket has a bad case of red rot.

I actually sold this jacket back in July, but to a guy with a different Ebay user name. Could be the same guy using another name. The jacket was too big for me so I sold it. The Ebay description is actually almost all mine which the seller has used without permission.

Now I know why the description was so straightforward, though the current seller seems to have taken a crooked path to get there. Maybe he thinks he purchased the description with the jacket. :roll:

It will be interesting to see if the jacket fetches what I sold it for, which was only a little less than the BIN price.

Currently US $305.00. One day left. Guess the description worked better the first time.

when I auctioned it it was going for more than this at this stage. There was competition between three main bidders and the price shot up in the last minute of the auction. So there is still time for it to really take off.

 

[Roughwear]

Well I was completely wrong. The jacket did not take off and failed to hit the reserve.

I guess, as with most things, it's a matter of timing. Given the name on the chest, I should have put in a bid, but the jacket's a tad too big for me and too big for my wallet. :cry:

Cheers,
Mac
