I'm not 100% sure either, but it does look to me more of a Pilati styled item than a Ford one (the Pilati items have a more relaxed feel to them, with more relaxed fabrics... TF's YSL was all about 70's sexiness with fabrics and cuts to match).

Either way it's a post 2002 jacket, given the tags, and one from the top line with a retail of probably $1200+. At $90, it's an absolute steal (wish it were my size!!!)

I think you might get more than $99 on ebay, especially with the runway photo to attract bidders. I'll keep and eye on it and probably kick myself for not buying it. I did nearly pay 6 times the price for a brown version, after all.

We'll see. I put it up for .99 and we'll see how it goes, I guess.

Will you let the YSL jacket go for 99 cents?

Well, it's up to $1.04.

I'm willing to let it go for whatever people buy it for.

The double-breasted didn't sell. $22 and it's yours. It really is great, I promise. If it fit me, I'd wear the **** out of it.

Dammit, if I had found this thread earlier, I would have been all over it. I should check this forum more often.

Unfortunately, the winning bidder on Ebay for the Marteganis ultimately failed to pay, and I just closed the dispute on him.

Anyone interested in them for $60 shipped?
