That's the thing with shopping vintage jackets on Ebay. There's a standard way to measure and describe things used by vintage clothing people. But you get sellers who don't acquaint themselves, and they give little to go on.

Standard is to give armpit-to-armpit (across the inside back) which when doubled gives an approximate chest size.

That might be what the seller means, maybe I'll PM them.
