    eBay Jacket and Waistcoat

    I spotted this on eBay and had contacted the seller regarding measurements. Unfortunately, they then said they are unwilling to ship to Canada so perhaps someone here from the US might be interested.

    It looks very nice! Not my size though.

    That's a very nice vintage tweed jacket, especially at that price with a matching waistcoat! If it were my size, I'd be all over it.

    tempting for sure, but without actual measurements it's really tough to pull the trigger on that one with the iffy description of size...

    That's what I was thinking; I'm usually a 42L but depending on actual measurements, sometimes 40 and 44 (L or R) fit so I thought I'd check the measurements.

    Hopefully it finds a nice home somewhere!

    you guys are a bad influence.
    I figured what the hey and shot the seller a message asking for measurements on the jacket. Sure enough, it's my size. For 90 clams including shipping I couldn't pass it up.

    That's fantastic! Glad it worked out for someone here as it looked like a really nice jacket and waistcoat!

    You beat me to it. I was also a little iffy on the size (I'm a 46R). ;)

    You'd better post some pics in it when it arrives!

    I'll post pics once it arrives and I find a source for replacement buttons for all the missing ones on the jacket and waistcoat.
