1986 jacket, from what I can see never worn, so may reach $100 on ebay. These are available all the time on ebay.
The name tag however may well make this a bit more attractive.
Just my $0.02, check ebay for more.

Thanks again

The jacket does not appear configured to match the nametag -- no shoulder rank, velcro for patches, etc -- so it really needs to be viewed on the merits of just the jacket. $100 is a pretty steep price for a C-series jacket. I purchased my last one (about 5 weeks ago) for about $65, including postage (shipped within the US).

I forgot to mention in the fit's post , that the name tag was in a bag of patches etc that I got from my uncle , I put it on the jacket just to liven it up a little it is NOT original to the jacket
sorry for any confusion caused

You may as well, see the patches separately!

I have a plastic carrier bag full of patches , that my late uncle had collected mostly USAF etc

it looks like the jacket is in very nice condition, strong tag, good clean knits, no piling. Nomex looks good not washed out....Made in 86 or contract date of 86.
value can flucuate on the Ebay auctions....45-80 generally, this one I would think would be on the high side based on condition.
Some guys like all the velcro some don't, early CWU 36 and 45's only came with the name tag velcro, if I remember right, unit velcro was added by fab shop, wasn't till later date(?) they came standard with all the velcro....

Sell the patches individually (after you select any you would like to keep) and your sale of the jacket will be negated.
