I agree. A bit of unfortunate financial news forces the attempt here. Feel like the universe is testing my resolve a bit.

You're like those Buddhist monks who spend hours making an intricate design in the sand, only to demolish it immediately after attaining their nirvana, seriously.
LOL. There is some truth to that. But I'm not giving it away. If it doesn't sell then fate has chosen for me. TBH I'll be equally satisfied either way.

Ton!! Oh man, if it would be less by one size..
The jacket looks like a dream, but its measurements are too big to me. I've even checked all its measurements twice, again! Too big, what a pity(
It's the best Bootlegger I've ever seen. An absolute masterpiece!
P.S. Ton, there's a misprint in your ad above - its date isn't 09/01/17,
the correct DATE is 09/01/18.

Sorry, Ton - it seems like I'm a bit confused by the difference between european and american order of writing dates (european order 09/01/17 means 9th January, but american order means 1st September). So, Ton - the date in your ad above is possibly the date of order and then 09/01/17 is absolutely correct of course. Sorry once again, I've been confused because I was (and still am)) so excited of this beauty! That's the reason!!))
