An 18" shoulder would fit me, but it's a bit too 70s for my taste (lapels and vent).
Slightly off topic, but has ebay thrown the customer service out with the bath water? A T&A shirt I ordered hasn't arrived, despite a courier notification to say it had. I opened a case, not expecting a refund (straight away), as I am sure it has been delivered somewhere else by mistake and that we can find it by contacting the courier and instead they've just closed the case and said its delivered! I've appealed it and await a response.
It's certainly gone down hill on its standards. My personal bug bear as most know is the Global Shipping Program thing they do, which is a total rip off for overseas buyers as the sellers cannot be bothered to arrange delivery themselves. When I sell items I always opt out of this option as it gets too expensive and puts folk off buying.
For example, you cannot tell me that is costs $16.99 to send a small cotton bucket hat from NY to London that will fold flat in an envelope. I appreciate the way the mail is collected in the US that it make life easier for the seller if the postman collects it etc, but to me that is just lazy and not offering the buyer a fair postal service. Just my opinion but an example of where I feel disappointed with the current state of buying on eBay.
They've always been good with me previously, as has been 99.9% of sellers, but to open a case requesting assistance in finding a package and then literally 3 minutes later close it down basically saying "Get lost sucker!" strikes me as sinister and devoid of any due care to the buyer and indeed, the seller. In the real world, when you have something sent by courier and its gone missing, you get in touch with the courier and eventually in most cases it will turn-up as they speak to the driver and he realises he's sent it to the wrong address. In the worse case, it goes back to the seller.
Good news: overnight they've reviewed the case and will give a refund, but I would prefer a proper investigation to find where the package. With a tracking courier service, this should be more than feasible and will give the original intended outcome.

No worries, Acton. I went back and bought another.
3 1/2 inches, Tommy.
And returns accepted. Very important!

Thank you brother chief , i have just nabbed one myself.
Foulards rule. I might even count how many I have.
16. 1 is pre boom years, 2 are post boom years and the rest are boom years.
16 foulards is probably enough. But what I would I know? 👍🏻😄
