Not sure what to make of this one...

I dig this Lewis Leathers collab jacket, and the fit pic looks terrific, but at approximately $18,450 USD this one seems a bit spendy.

Not a duck walk repair. It can be repaired, but I rather replace the male side of the zipper or replace both zipper sides. The lining can be replaced with a nice red fabric nylon. I would take the challenge if the jacket was my size and $150 dollar cheaper.

Look at the color on this Vanson Oxford in Octagon leather. Is it worth the price?

Rather not I'd say, but "worth the price" is really dependent on how much you want something. Maybe a good idea to try to offer something like 700$, that seems more reasonable.

I've seen a lot of these in JP for half that price.
Not saying that these are in the same condition or the same in other ways, but here are a few examples for size 40:
