the seller's a dickhead but this is a nice vintage press jacket:

^
Note, sleeves on that jacket seem really short by the measurements.
Also if you're going to deal in vintage menswear, it would probably be helpful to familiarize yourself with clothing sizes. 16.5" shoulders do not in any way reflect 39 jacket size. I guess this guy didn't appreciate my well intentioned instructions on how to measure clothes, ha.

Oli i hope you don't think me ungrateful or anything but all these sellers are American.
Not only that ,but they charge to ship stuff across the Atlantic !
Can't you come up with Ivy from sellers living in a five mile radius of my London suburb ?
And preferably with no postage charge ? In fact can you pay for the items for me ?
Oliver is just rude and lacks any regard for the feelings of anyone outside of his own freaking Stanley Blacker jacket. Selfish little prick!
The words in the listing on this one are great! HAHAHA!! Steampunk? Scooter? Comedic gold right there. Love it. They're pulling out all the stops.

The effrontery is egregious!
Oh dang. You sold those? I loved you in those. Wait... "soled"? Does that mean sold or soiled? Either way, I'm sorry for your loss.
Apologies in advice to the pedants - not eBay at all - just spotted a 'John Simons Apparel Company' button down in the city centre branch of Scope for the princely sum of £6 - size Small, Pink with flap pocket - excellent condition - too small for me by about 35 years ..... anyone interested - please PM and I would be only too happy to purchase it and send it on. Evidently a fellow (ivy) clothing enthusiast in the Worcester area - have spotted a few Brooks Brothers button downs etc there in the past - anybody on here?
