For Sale at £200 - SOLD
A smart, business-appropriate, dark navy Aquascutum overcoat in a weight suitable for use in cold weather. It's definitely overcoat-weight rather than topcoat-weight. This coat is from my personal wardrobe, so it is used, and also in great condition. To give you the idea of the relatively low frequency of wear, it's about 3-4 years old, I live in a temperate climate with relatively little snow, and I have a handful of overcoats that I rotate between. No marks, rips, stains, etc, etc. I take care of my clothes.
I'm selling this because it's always been a little big for me. I can't remember what the retail price when new was, but I'm guessing something in the £800 region. Similarly-styled new ones (with less luxury fibre content) are on eBay for £325, so I think my asking price of £200 for a very lightly used one is fair. I'm not inclined to drop the price at this stage. If it fails to sell, I'll probably just keep it and try again when the colder weather returns in autumn.
UK shipping is included, and only UK buyers please. The coat is over 2kg, which makes international airmail ridiculously expensive as it can't be sent Royal Mail Small Packet Airmail Service, and using Parcelforce (or UPS or any other courier) automatically bumps up the cost from a reasonable £20-ish with Royal Mail for under 2kg to £60+ with the couriers. Stupid pricing system, but there it is. Sorry.
EDIT: on further consideration, I will ship to the USA, if any buyer wants to take on that extra cost. The asking price for US buyers is therefore £260. Once the coat is sent out and I know the exact postage, I would either refund any excess or request further payment to cover the difference (unlikely to be more than £10 either way, but I can't guarantee this). If you're willing to take on those significant extra conditions, I will ship internationally.

EDIT 1: Imageshack is being a pain in the backside tonight, so apologies if any photos are temporarily not showing. If they don't show up properly by tomorrow, I'll re-up them for a fourth time...
EDIT 2: I will ship to US buyers with Parcelforce if they are willing to pay the extra for this service. The cost will be about £60, so the asking price for US buyers is £260. This would then be adjusted after I post the item, based on whatever exact postage ends up being.
