WWII USN M-422a

I was surprised this nice looking all original G&F M-422a didn't sell for $500. Far cheaper than a repro.

Nice jacket, but stitch holes are a deal breaker for me. The description
listed the nameplate had been sewn in 2 different positions on the jacket.
Still was a bargain for someone less picky than myself

I remember reading somewhere; If the start price for bidding and the "buy it now" price are too close, the item might very well end up not being sold, even though the BIN price is reasonable (as in this case).
