Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

[Colin G]

It was amazing to watch, but not so surprising that the winner didn’t pony-up.

The seller probably had a friend ramp up the bidding to get others to bid higher and it backfired. Typical on ebay.

I suspect more than a couple of the sellers friends were playing bid beer pong on that one. Nice jacket for sure but..LOL. No. Just no.

Really nice Lee Trevor for $100 something (I had the exact same model only in XL, super heavy, awesome jacket)! Worth every cent.

Some idiot put in a bid on it, removing the BIN option.

Lol, I KNEW that was going to happen! I was just checking my PayPal and when I got back, douche already placed a bid.

That said, this jacket looks really heavy! Look at the straps!

 

[Mrfrown]

And now the listing is just gone?! What the heck

 

[Jrolfe]

Sorry fellas. I’ve got the quickest hands in the west!!

 

[Mrfrown]

So you hit BIN and the eBay system registered it as a “bid” and took a minute to close the listing. Mystery solved?

congrats on the pickup!

I seen it went back up with a BIN and I drew as fast as lightning!!

Really kinda cool looking Lee Trevor. Measurements seem a bit strange for the apparent M size especially the P2P. As a guy who really appreciates the novelty of having things made from a by gone era with True Vintage jackets, my interests don't often delve into contemporary reproductions. So based on my love of old stuff, in general, I'm sorta philosophically opposed to the Lee Trevors as they seem to be mainly artificially distressed reproduction type jackets (Please correct me if I'm wrong in my interpretation). That said, I still find myself liking them sometimes just based on seeing them. Admittedly, I've never handled one and I know that Monitor has said he can vouch for their being decent. Any other thoughts on Lee Trevor jackets??

This one is a combo of a few different looks (as are most Lee Trevors). Kinda has some Passaic/Vanson vibes to it with the chest pockets along with some 50s vintage flair with the hand warmer pockets framed in rounded piping. Cool back as well. Even as a reproduction type jacket, the price is reasonable enough.

This is one of the coolest LT I've seen and its actually growing on me by the minute. I'd be more tempted if I didn't just grab a mystery highwayman I need to ID (PLEASE See my imminent Outerwear Forum Thread to help me Identify it!!!!)

No it got taken down, no longer available. Then it got relisted and bought.

You are going to love this jacket. Total score, no question. I would have bought it at that price just on principle.
