Hi all,

I'm looking for a nice jacket for the winter and saw this one on ebay:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ANDREW-MARC-NEW-...QQcmdZViewItem

I was wondering if you guys think the buy it now price is fair and if you think its worth it. I only have around $250.00 to spend and have always wanted a shearling jacket.

I know you are experts and hope for some great feedback. Thanks.

P.S. I live in toronto so it does get chilly.

Thanks.

The jacket on your linked eBay auction site is not shearling.

I think I saw these at the Off 5th in Raleigh. I can't remember what the price was, but if you have an Off 5th near you, you might want to give them a call.

My opinion is that it's not shearling and it's definitely not worth $250!!!!!

Yeah, sounds a bit pricy for an email gamble. I think you can do better.
