Aviationetc A-2s

[Stony]

Here's a link to one of the A-2s that the seller Aviationetc has on ebay. You can access their other jackets by clicking on "seller's other items" link.

Nice jackets in large sizes, but too high in price in my opinion. Anyone ever have any dealings with them?

Hi Stony,

Aviationetc has been discussed on this forum a number of times; here's the most recent thread that I recall, appropriately enough called "Does Anyone Really Pay These Prices?":

Essentially, this guy seems to have a different economy of scale than most of us. As a buyer, he'll win any bidding war. As a seller, he lists his jackets on ebay for outrageous amounts, but I really don't think selling jackets is his business. He seems to throw them on ebay as bait, maybe to attract attention to his store, I don't know. But if someone has deep enough pockets to pay what he is asking . . . .
