Chester Barrie Hand-Tailored Cashmere Jacket

[newtrane]

Gentlemen I got the following hand-tailored cashmere jacket from Chester Barrie as a gift. The jacket is of amazing quality - Unfortunately, it is too big for me. 1) What is the approximate retail value of the jacket? 2) Would anyone be interested to buy it? Measurements - Neck to foot of tail 33 3/4 inches - Armpit to armpit 25 1/2 Inches - Shoulder to shoulder 21 Inches - Sleeve length 26 3/4 inches from shoulder top to end of arm Thank you very much.

Too big for me.

I would imagine it retails for at least $1500.

I just wanted to add that the jacket is European size 58 / US size 48. I made a mistake and listed the jacket in the wrong Ebay category Â

Newtrane, your solution only compounded the mistake, unfortunately. Â You now have duplicate listings for the same item. Â I strongly recommend that you log into your seller account and cancel the older one immediately, if not sooner. Â <s>Stupi</s>--erm, unobservant people are legion on eBay, and they will bid on your auction despite your warning. Â Worse, there are probably others (like meÂ

) who have third-party auto-snipe bids set for the final 5 seconds. Â None of these people will be amused by the result--and neither will you if the the final bid goes above your "real" listing. Â For future reference, the best way to deal with a "wrong category" screwup is to revise the existing auction listing--no need to submit a duplicate. Â And, if necessary, you can cancel a listing even if there are bids on it: you just have to manually cancel those bids first, with all the attendant customer aggravation that implies. It's a nice-looking coat, and I hope you get a good price for it. Â It's my exact size, actually, but unfortunately not a good color for me. Â (If it were, I'd be cursing you for realizing you'd put it in the wrong category.Â
