Aero Badalassi Offering
@Imuricecreamman Thanks, man! I think so, too. You can hardly find black Badalassi on the Internet..just watch straps and black Minverva Box Badalassi on www.tokopedia.com but I'm sure it's cow and not buffalo.- Robbie79

Aero Badalassi Offering
@Jin431 Good to hear from you and thank you for your kind words. I hope you're well, too....sitting most of the time in the home office (like many of us), fortunately being very busy at work recently which keeps me away from buying jackets ;) The black Badalassi is not as squeaky as the other...- Robbie79

Aero Badalassi Offering
@Jin431 I know I'm breaking my personal rules ;) and want to be less active in order to protect myself for losing self-control again if you know what I mean as I simply have enough jackets. However from time to time I'm watching specific threads on TFL (not all and not as excessive as in the...- Robbie79

Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition
No worries ;-) I'm holding my resolution. I was tempted to buy the Buco but hopefully the seller will find another buyer soon and I'm sure a Mulholland (FL or FW) can wait another year unless I have other plans next year. I've just decided that I'll stay away from TFL for a couple of...- Robbie79

Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition
That's the point. I already have Perfecto and D-pocket style jackets. I do prefer their styles/designs over this one but on the other hand it's a rare one in very good condition and sold as a complete package with belt and gloves. I don't really know if it'll look good on me. When seeing @JCSD...- Robbie79

@Jin431 If you ever contact Genco, please tell Hiroyuki Watanabe-san my best wishes (Robert from Cologne in Germany) - I ordered a black Ceninela some time ago and he helped my to keep the VAT+duty as low as possible. Very nice and friendly guy! info@genco-clothing.com The same applies for...- Robbie79

Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition
@Jin431 Too bad. The auction ended at approx. $1450 (plus 30% for shipping, VAT, duty would have been to expensive for me taking into account that e.g. Genco Clothing Japan can state e.g. $200 on the invoice for cost saving. If I knew that Greg is capable to make the same one for just 1000GBP...- Robbie79

Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition
@JMax It's definitely a 21" pit to pit measurement, so it would fit me. The strange thing however is that it is tagged as size 44. I do have a 42" chest wearing a thin shirt. Terry meant that this one will be, despite the 21" pit to pit measurement, too big on me as it is size 44 and designed...- Robbie79

:D:D Thanks Man, joking aside, I will sleep one night on it and will finally decide tomorrow. If it’s still available I’ll take the risk and buy it, if not, then so be it!

@jeo Thanks, Man! I've followed this auction till I found the Vintage Buco yesterday. I'm sure it'll go for >$1200. Damn, this is exactly my size and I was waiting for a brown Mulholland size 38. The black Mulholland would have looked to similar to the Engelbert Vanek apart from the jacket...- Robbie79

WTB Eastman leather G-1 size 38
Hi, Have you seen @SLAB 's offer here on a Rainbow Country G-1 in size 40 (I guess size might be comparable with Eastman)? The quality of Rainbow Country is on same level as Eastman and on a similar level as The Real Mccoy's in my experience (Freewheelers is better)...- Robbie79

@Monitor @tmitchell59 He actually rejected all of my price offers as he insists on min $1000. adding 30% for VAT and duty it would cost me $1350 including shipping which is too expensive and risky for me. The fact that the package is complete (belt, etc.) persuaded me to make my final offer at...- Robbie79

@Marc mndt You're basically right but as I don't have any experience in vintage leather jackets and as it's a lot of money compared to a new e.g. FL jacket I'm hesitant. I just want to avoid that I buy it for $1200-1300 (incl. VAT + duty) and sell it for $500-600 here or somewhere else as there...- Robbie79

After talking to @jonbuilder @technovox @JMax (Thanks again guys for your help!) I'm seriously considering this vintage 50's Buco J-27 in very good overall condition (leather, linging, belt, original hardware, plus leather gloves) - only hardware needs to be cleaned which, I guess, should be...- Robbie79
