Found this myself, was thinking of maybe bidding, when it was at $38 US with 8 bids last night, but it's at $250 now with 16 bids. : (

Too small for me really, just that I like a bit of a project.

Any of you guys bidding on this one?

Most of the real bidders will post in the last minutes of the auction. That’s when the real bidding begins .

Maybe you get lucky and there's no last minute bidding frenzy, and sail through like a ship passing in the night.

If the auction ends late evening for example, or people just snooze on the Jacket for whatever reason, size or condition.

Usually you can tell when there's an interest or buzz around certain items and there's gonna be a last minute dash or not.

In this case I suspect I'm elbow to elbow with a small bunch trying to squeeze in.

With the shearling shedding from the skin, this is a clear indication of the onset of dry rot. This jacket will disintegrate quickly if someone tries wearing it.

agree with dr g. your money is better spent on a gram of coke.

 

[Dumpster D]

..Don't let him fool you, he's trying to pooh-pooh it so he can get it for himself!!

Those kinda tears in shearling are hard to repair.

Walk on by…

 

[Silver Surfer]

dumpster. not. I have owned and passed on several [one went to Gary elc] original b-3s. simply put, I have no need for a disintegrating closet queen.

Looks like it is rotten to me.

You just described my personality, also my WWII Jacket collection : )

(Anyway at that point in a garment's life, now only a display piece.)
