FS: Thedi Shawl Collar Markos small dark brown cowhide from Thurston Bros

[Bigsbycallaghan]

Hello!
On the recommendation of some members of this forum, I'm getting rid of some jackets that no longer fit me. Here is the first one.
This is a Thedi Shawl Collar in brown cowhide. Size Small. They call it a Markos now.
I bought this used on eBay around 2018. Maybe from someone on this site, but it's been a while! I've worn it dozens of times since then.
There are some light scuffs and creases commensurate with the usage. I had to sew a pocket button and a front button back on, so the thread is a slightly different color.
I've got some measurements in the photos. If you want more photos or have questions, let me know!
I've sold on eBay for a lot of years under this same username. I never figured out the overseas shipping, so I'm going to stick with the US for this sale unless someone can clue me in on a fool proof, low hassle way to do otherwise!
$850 obo + shipping. PayPal. Just for everyone's peace of mind, we can do the commercial PayPal.
These are going for $2100 now from Thurston, so this is about 60% off retail.
Thanks for looking!

Interesting update. I was looking at other posts on this same model and it turns out I was the guy that bought this jacket from Bfd70 on eBay. If you look at the creases on the back, it's the same pattern! @Bfd70 thought you might like that blast from the past!

Holding that incredibly stubborn glass jar under running hot water to loosen the tight metal lid was taking way longer than usual. I put it down and navigated to spinogambino to try my luck on a fresh release while waiting for a moment. Totally unexpectedly I hit a fantastic multiplier that boosted my balance. Opening that container finally felt fantastic with my new wealth

Beautiful jacket! Thedi makes incredible stuff, and that is a steal at that price.

Just a quick tip regarding the overseas shipping hassle: the easiest, zero-risk method for you is to just tell international buyers to use a package forwarding service. I do this all the time to get US items shipped over here to Ukraine.

Basically, the buyer signs up with a forwarder who gives them a local US address. You just ship the jacket to that US address like a normal domestic sale. The forwarding company takes care of all the international logistics, customs, and overseas shipping. It takes all the headache away from the seller.

I would be all over this if it wasn't a size Small (weightlifting finally caught up with me, so I wouldn't fit!). Good luck with the sale!

Thank you! I'll have to look into that. Sounds like it fits the bill perfectly.
