Good work YoungIvy - anyone who's a 17 1/2 neck and has any space in their wardrobe should grab this.

Can you include the sizes as well please.

Pit to pit - 21 inches
shoulder measurement - 17 inches
shoulder-cuff - 25.5 inches
length 34 inches

Right cuff has button missing

£20

All points taken, old bongo player.  I might have taken it at that price twelve-odd years ago but not now.  Might be all right with jeans, I suppose.  I took a coat to a seamstress this morning and she produced acceptable cuff buttons within minutes. 
Perhaps a bit on the large side for you, you matinee idol you?

Looking again, Yuca isn't wrong about that darting.

Lovely, Rumanian-made Baggie shirt with a starting bid of just £60!  Who'll buy, who'll buy?

I track ebay every day and have searches running, but in general I try only to buy from UK and Ireland these days.

Shipping costs in USA have gone up a lot, then there are the enhanced level of customs charges experienced.  It's often not worth it now from USA.

eBay has generally been good for shoes to me.  Two pairs of Paraboots, Sanders, Clarks wallabee chukas from USA, Clarks apron wallabees from UK twice in last year to replace previous ones.  Those factory second shoes that are sold off, often seem to have no issue at all that I can see.  I have bought new and factory outlet physical or online is good.  Right now in its outlet Loake still has made in UK Oxblood Derbys/smooths with Danite sole for £75 in my size. I don't need any, but that's a damn good price.

Moving to Danite soles where I can instead of flat leather (no need for flats now dancing behind me) has extended the life of my shoes hugely too.  On that front, I probably now won't need any more.  Maybe just replacing mocs as they wear out.

ah yes. I have completely given up on USA now via ebay.

Years ago, on Ebay, some transactions were full of fun.  An American - claimed to be ex-cop/FBI/CIA or something - threatened to take me to court (over there).  Another American said, when I failed to pay him as quickly as he thought he ought to be, said how wonderful it would be if British cities were blitzed again. 
Closer to home, one gentleman on the Isle Of Wight threatened to pay me a visit for purposes of ultra-violence, a second e-mailed me twice a day to see if I'd posted a pair of Cheaney shoes I'd picked up in the local Oxfam.  I think he might have been one of JSs 'arrington 'n smooves customers.
PayPal was in its infancy then.

No idea but it's a beauty. I have a tasty 60s grey herringbone sack back in Blighty, but it's not as good as that one.
