Hein Gericke. Really nice leather.

I disagree... red is where it's at

No, no, no...green, blue, prugna...

Tellin' ya, brown cross zip is where it's at. Wish LW's brown was any nicer, that woulda been my last order ever.

I don’t think the point is just the color in this case if we’re speaking of direct comparison of any cross-zipped LW with this FC. The only point is just Shinki, that’s it. That’s how Shinki charm works) Looks totally different from any LW, moreover - they’re almost opposite poles beasts. LW has its own interesting features, but it’s hardly possible LW might look this way.
Anyway, I love both)

None offer prugna except Electric Leather Studio/Mushmans - I would love a leather jacket made of this colour...

I already got close to the colour

Is prugna seriously a color?? Or anything at all? Even Chrome auto-correct underlines it red. I guess I learned a new word today.

Well prugna would be prune... He has a very nice red as well

Prugna means plum (Italian) and Badalassi's Prugna looks similar like plum colour

Anyone else notice a massive uptick on vintage jackets from Japan on eBay? Like this beauty.

vintage <everything> (sometimes same object offered by different sellers) without any grounding in reality regarding price.

@Blackadder was explaining the speculation market a few weeks back...sellers will sometimes accept bids on ebay, and then purchase the item from a yahoo japan auction pocketing the difference.

Gorgeous jacket. The only thing I don’t like is the lack of piping around the zippers on the d pocket and pillion pockets.

I developed a pastime some time ago where I send the ebay reseller a link to the original yahoo auction I recognise the pictures from. I've had ebay later sent me one of their helpful emails to say 'an item you were interested in has been discounted . . .' , still massively inflated but in a lot of cases they are folding in delivery charges

There is also the risk factor of return. Most if not all Yahoo auction Japan sellers do not accept return and the proxy service do not usually return any item for you (if you pay the premium on the proxy service insurance then you are "somewhat" covered) but it seems easier to get a refund on ebay. If the ebay seller accepts return then that risk is most certainly included in the price.
