NWT Hickey Freeman Nordstrom dress shirt size 16

Just found this shirt in the back of my closet... It's a size 16 with 36 sleeves - not quite sure why I bought it since I only wear 33 sleeves (maybe I was gonna fix the sleeves since it was a nice shirt) - who knows! The tag still says $49 marked down from $165...so $49 it is! Oh, and I noticed while I was photo-ing that there's a small "hole" on the top right above the tag from the stupid sensor - it should probably wash out, though... Thanks for looking...

Is my price off or are my pictures that bad?

You asked so... It's price. You can't expect to sell things for what you can get them for in Nordstrom Rack (or Filenes, or Marshalls, etc...). You keep doing this. People come here for deals. It's not a deal if we can walk down the street and buy the exact same thing. When we buy it from the store, we get in addition to the item the ability to try it on and the ability to return. If we are to buy sight unseen from you, with no returns, not being able to try it on, we have to get something in return for giving up those things. That something is a lower price.

the other thing to consider is not showing the picture of the price tag with the extra xx% sticker removed.. your audience is more savvy than that
we know how much shirts retail for, so you don't need to include that pic
I like HF shirts, but for $50 on this forum, you can get much nicer

You can get 40 + shipping for it easily on Ebay. NWT HF merch tends to do fairly well from what I've seen.

+1 for ebay... it may not fair as well on here, ebay will do you just fine...If possible, take pics in a more brightly lit area. One of the cheapest solutions to lighting problems for smaller items: get a white poster board (like 57 cents) walk outside when its sunny and shoot away
