They dropped the price to $150 and I was planning to purchase it, then they increased the price to $250, then increased it again to $400. Oh well.

Does this need a main zip replacement?

I just received an offer from the sellar to purchase the coat for $349. That's just great! So I sent him an email asking him what his real price is? he starts at 180 then he raises it up incrementally and then he offers you a discount? I don't know?

Judging by one of the pictures, it would probably be finicky to zip up at the least. For $150, I would be fine with that though.

I also received an offer for $350. $150 was a very low price, and I guess they realized that. $350 is a bit overpriced though, in my opinion. A bit of an overcorrection.

At least we are seeing some love for Golden Bear, I was never in agreement that they are just above Wilson....no way.

Old Golden Bear vs. Newer Golden Bear is like Night and Day........

 

[Bluechel]

True, but you also have to make sure it has the Made in USA tag either way. They ruined it, but if you have a careful eye..............

None of this pricing shifting will help sell the jacket. It probably was a deal at $150!

 

[tmitchell59]

I just found a Deal so I bought it. One of those they won't fit me, but fits in my Closet. Another old D pocket and this one looks 40s from the zipper pull, wool lined, no handwarmer pockets, no makers label, half-belt back, sewn on belt.

I just realized this is like a recent Goatskin basket case I bought.

I didn't linger on the pictures until I bought it. Would have been gone

Just received an email from the seller concerning the Golden Bear. The seller said that "the item was missed priced when listed"

Another not leather but purty durn cool vintage Hollywood style jacket that I would snap up if my size. I have a Cresco like this but monotone that I love, this one 10’ times cooler. Something Clark Gable would’ve strutted around in.

plus it’s a Deadstock NOS
