    The coatee is indeed my size, but the style and colour is definitely not me.

    Cheers,

    I'm not sure how to interpret the "new without tags" description. I see that a lot on eBay, and it always makes me wary. If something is new, why wouldn't it have tags? The only reason I can think of that it would not have tags is if it had been sold and then returned, which means it's not really "new" any longer. Anybody have more light to shed on that?

    Another possibility, Tobus, is factory over-runs. As the tag in question in "New without Tags" is the price tags, for most clothing, it's the store that put that tag on. If it's a lot of over-runs from the factory being resold individually, then it would not have, nor ever had, tags.

    I'd find it hard to believe that these unique jackets were factory overruns, though.

    Even the clothing in a store, with tags on, has likely been tried on. And I've taken stuff home then decided to return it, with tags intact. So "new" has a whole range of possible meanings and conditions -- even your "new" car must have a few miles on the odo when you take delivery!

    Trade show/salesman's samples?

    I will agree that "unique" is an accurate tag LOL
