This eBay listing won't start until tomorrow (Sunday), but I thought I'd tease you with a few pics. I'll post the link tomorrow.

I'll let the photos speak for themselves:










Thanks for looking...

Dennis

I love this shirt. It's much too large, however.

Very cool military-inspired details! You always have the coolest stuff (I remember your Armani leather jacket... and I'm bidding on your Gucci belt that you have on the Bay... )

For what it's worth... I also have it in purple in a size 41. I bought them both at the same time at the Etro store in New York. Back then I was probably closer to 40-41. They only had the yellow in a 42, but I bought it anyway. Now they're both too fitted for me. If this does well I'll list the purple one.

Thanks Mark. You are too kind.
BTW- Sorry you didn't win the auction for the Gucci belt. Not to worry. I've got more belts where that came from...

That's a neat shirt. For some reason, it kind of makes me wish I had a yacht in the Mediterranean or the Caribbeans to wear it on.

Dennis,

You really do have a lot of cool stuff as in mucho, many, huge collection.

Do you get to wear most of your stuff?

Or are you like many of us (including me), finding that I buy something that I really like and then wear it once or not at all.

Thanks! I really do try to make an effort to wear my stuff....although I do have my favorites (which of course are constantly changing).

Nothing gets me more pissed at myself than buying something that looks cool in the store, but then just sits after getting it home. Unfortunately it happens to me far too often. A store will get an unusual item, which might look especially nice when compared to the other, somewhat "so-so" items in the store. But then, when I get it home and mix it in with MY not so "so-so" items...well... you know how that goes...

Anyway... Now that I've caught the e-bay bug, I've begun putting together a pile of items that I'll be listing over the coming weeks... More money means more goodies for me (without having to run interference with the wife. You'd think after 23 years she'd be used to me by now...NOT!).

With only a few hours to go there are a ton of "watchers" but no bids... So I thought I should take a few more pics...this time in natural daylight (the photography lights definitely made this yellow look "hotter" than it appears in real life).



And here are a couple with a large hanger that demonstrates how the epaulettes sit up on the shoulders:

Too bad I wear a 38 in Etro....It's springtime, so it's the perfect time to wear something like this.

Auction ended with no bids. Although with 14 "watchers"...there was a pretty fair amount of interest. And yet nobody was willing to pull the trigger for just $59? (the starting bid). Geesh...This was originally a $350 shirt!

Anyway.... I've gone ahead and relisted the shirt. Let's give it another try.

Here's the link:
