Very nice!

That is nice! You did well.

Well done. I was barely outbid on a 46S (I need a 48 but figured I could make it work for the price), but I had to be away from the computer during the end of the bidding, and lost out. Heavy sigh.

I hope they have more to put up, and that one of them is a 48S.

Congratulations, and Merry Christmas!

Preacher - I don't recommend that you try to make a smaller jacket work. It's my experience that the sizes on jackets from the UK tend to run small, as it is.

dejudicibus, nice jacket and a good price. Congrats.

Nice find!! :grin:

**Prester John** · 23rd December 05, 07:07 PM

Thank you Bob, I didn't think of that. That's good advice which I will heed.

Merry Christmas!

Well, I had to try a couple of times too before winning a bid. The trick is to know which will probably be the final price, wait for last 2 minutes and set a maximum offering 5 punds more than final price. Usually it works. By the way, most wanted are in the range 42-46. So a 40, like mine, or a 48, may have more chances to have less bids.
