    Eton Jackets for sale

    I was working in south Arkansas the other day and stopped in a Tuxedo rental store. I'll do that when in a small town, and ask if they sell off any jacket, and if they have an Eton jacket. To my surprise she brought one out, (after I described it.) Said they hadn't rented any in years and, in fact wanted to sell the lot to buy some white jackets. I was ready to buy, but she wouldn't sell me the one. Wants to sell the lot. 30 jackets! These are wool not polyester. They look in great shape. I would be willing to buy the lot if I could move the rest, or at least enough of them.

    A couple of points, She called them Tracy coats, sure looked like an Eton to me. Don't know if it is a different name in their trade or a slight variation in style. Only difference I could see, the single button is on both sides, rather than a button across from a button hole. Also, size runs snug. The 44R didn't fit me, took a 46R. (That may just be the nature of a waist fitted jacket.)

    These are the sizes avaliabe: 1-3B, 1-34R, 1-36R, 1-37S, 2-38S, 1-38L, 2-40S, 2-40R, 1-40L, 2-42S, 3-42R, 1-42L, 1-44R, 2-44L, 1-46R, 1-46L, 1-48R, 1-48L, 1-50XL, 1-52XL, 1-54R.

    I'd ask $20.00 @ plus shipping. Anyone interested?

    Let me know the shipping cost and I'll take the 44R off your hands.

    Sounds like we may just get there, I'll hold out the 46R for myself.

    Looks like the bigger sizes are spoken for. Maybe next time!
    So, do I get to change my kilt count when I have saved half the money to buy my next or when I get all the money together and actually order it? Either way, I'm getting close to 1.5!

    I'd like to bequeath my dibs on the 54R to Viper, if he'd like it.
