I love this H.Freeman tweed:

^ Now that is a beauty and very well presented by the seller, my size too.....but I don't need another tweed jacket. I must resist, I must resist......
I'd buy this in a flash if there was an extra inch in the shoulders. Looks like it's supposed to roll to the 2nd button too:

It's $7.99 Stateside for me, what are you seeing?
$51.45 USPS Priority Mail International - which it an absolute joke, not even a heavy tweed jacket would cost that much!
A similar weight jacket from another US seller costs $27.99.
Ouch! I've sent jacket to Italy for under $25.

Nice one, still silly money on the postage. Funnily enough seen a similar jacket and they too had $50+ for postage, so contacted them to ask why so steep when I have previously only paid US $25.95 (approx. £15.31) USPS First Class Mail Intl / First Class Package Intl Service and that is for heavier wool/tweed jackets.
I got something potentially good and cheap recently. If it works out I'm going to buy more. Then and only then will the rest of you get details.
I've said too much already.
CCC Madras jacket, 41" pit-to-pit, $64 ships worldwide.

Oliver , your inbox is full, could you delete these, ^ I'm watching one of those jackets and might bid. Thanks
Sorry man, done!
If it weren't for the twin vent, I'd probably go for the same one that I bet you're eyeing.
This inbox stuff is a big hassle. I'll go through and delete all PMs later.
That's a shame... I think we're the same size but just in case, there's a size 40 R.H. (not to drop any red flags on your eBay item) in an identical blue-grey shadow plaid cotton blend on Etsy as well. 17.5 shoulders I think, if that works out... good price too.
My birthday's next March guys! hint hint
