That particular seller has quite the collection of peacoats for sale. All very steeply priced. I'm guessing if at least one bites it pays for the lot. I noticed she has many WW2 coats in quite poor shape listed for 500 or more.
Other items are overpriced as well. She had one 1980s sweatshirt for $780 and another one for $2300. Good luck.
She prices things high. It is a strategy. I might come in with a reasonable offer and see what happens. I sent her a message with some questions about the inside. Not many pics.
I was thinking more about this. I received an almost new WWII coat that was in storage since the war according to the seller. Included with the sale were white spats and belt and an interesting kersey wool bag with the bottom hem not sewn. After your mention of sea bags and storage, I wonder if this bag was used to cover the coat while in storage. Or if this is an actual sea bag. It fits the jacket almost perfectly. The bag had two layers of kersey wool. Super heavy.
That is a cover for the peacoat (which I have never seen before) and not a sea bag which is much larger.
