Can you believe it?
Those are rather modern-looking. Almost Gucci-esque.

Yeah, it was an interesting auction. The winner is from Japan, and the second bidder is a SF member. The EG's definitely went for a higher price than I thought they would.

I would agree with you about the "Gucci-esque". I prefer more conventional EG's, but I think the distinct look od these is a reason they went for a high price.

Well, all of you sophisticates talked me out of my ugly houndstooth odd jacket (from another thread). Thanks, I think.

But I bought a suit anyway. Three-piece Sulka for $149.

Roughly a 42R (maybe a tad short). It doesn't have any size markings, but the listing stated measurements for the jacket of:

CHEST \t44
SLEEVE--SHOULDER SEAM TO CUFF \t25
SHOULDER SEAM TO SHOULDER SEAM \t19
LENGTH--TOP OF BACK COLLAR TO HEM \t32

Thank goodness. I'd love to have it, and would be heartbroken had it been a 38R.

38R...you're a fortunate man. So much well-done couture work and so many fine European suits seem to come available in that size.

On a more humorous note, here's a Christmas coat for you!

$394.89 for a pair of used shoes--ebay is wonder to behold. For a mere $1855.11 more the buyer could have gotten a new pair of Kiton shoes.

Think of how many David Edens that could buy.

Has anyone had any experiences with eBay seller VIP-COUTURE? I recently bought a Dolce & Gabbana mainline suit off this seller that was advertised as a BLACK suit. For the price I thought it would be good to have for weddings, funerals, etc. I double checked with the seller before hand to confirm that it was indeed black because the pictures looked gray. He confirmed that it was indeed black. I recieved the suit and sure enough it was gray. He refuses to refund the item and I've had to enter a claim with PayPal to try and get my money back. He has gone as far to say that charcoal gray and black are the same thing. I've since noticed from his feedback which looked good on the surface that he does not leave feedback for users until they leave him positive. If they leave him negative or neutral feedback he leaves them negative calling them complainers and then gets them to withdraw their negative feedback from him. Has anyone else had any experience with this clown?

I've had recent bad luck with ebay seller "style king."
He sold me a pair of pants listed as "perfect condition" where the seat seam was pulling apart. I didn't notice until after I had given positive feedback, and there has been no response from this guy after several polite and diplomatic emails.

Here's an odd one: I picked up a Sulka tie using buy-it-now for $3 the other day. (With shipping it was $6 or $8.) The tie arrived yesterday, and it's in terrible shape -- both stained and wrinkled. Isn't even the same color it appeared in the picture.

Now here's the curious thing: After I paid, the seller immediately left me positive feedback. Why in the world would someone selling a stained, wrinkled tie do that?

I'll contact the seller, and hopeful we can get this straightened out. If not, I can leave negative feedback without worrying about retaliation. I've never felt more empowered as a buyer!
