[LuckyKat]

I will be lisiting these on ebay in the next couple of hours, but if someone here wanted to make a serious offer, I'd rather stay away from ebay because they are like Satin's armpit...so make an offer before or after listing, but dont wait...

Satan's armpit, maybe. He's a rough guy; probably shuns satin.

I'm a 42 regular. Do you think the belted back will fit, and are there any flaws I should know about?

The green three-piece is probably the coolest suit I've seen several years . . . wow!

That's one lovely suit Benny! There are major benefits to doing your deals directly with the seller on TFL 'here' Gents. Sadly 'now' if you do want it, looks like you'll have to bid against the masses out there.
Should fetch a pretty price on the open market - Good Luck!!

If it fit a 42R it would be rather snug, but if you have a good tailor he could take out a a couple of the side seams and expand it a bit. I've had jackets taken in & out by an experienced seamstress (been sewing for 30+ years & has worked w/ vintage & costumes) & they now fit me to a T.

I'm willing to still take offers because I hate eBay but eBay is a great place to advertise to the world market. As you all know with this size & color this is a very rare suit. I thought about tailoring it down to me but it's 3 sizes too big so I am not willing to compromise the suits structure. If I was a 40-42, I would NEVER sell this suit, because I collect vintage greens!

What Guttersnipe said.


I'm glad that Marcus is having a go at it. Try now, folks ... because if y'all sit on your hands and let the eBay auction run its course, this wonderful suit could end up going for --what does LuckyKat call it?-- "stupid money".
