I don't know if it's been posted here yet but I know some SFers have bought some of these Drakes ties from this guy. http://shop.ebay.com/aj072686/m.html I just got four of them and they are excellent, first quality Drakes (and so I've ordered three more), and an amazing deal at GBP25. He's relisted them now for GBP15 ($24!), which is a steal. He's already sold a dozens but there are still some nice patterns left. He may have more still.

The guy selling the Sartorio sport coats is a complete idiot that barely speaks English. I wouldn't deal with him.

Maybe you're an idiot since you don't understand Italian...he happens to be a decent guy from my dealings with him, just it's hard for him to communicate...he gets deals on older season stuff - probably wants to unload the jackets quickly and not have to sit on them...

Shouldn't deal in an American marketplace without speaking the language. That's not even why I said that though. He puts sport coats up for $460 with $65 shipping... or best offer. However, the lowest he'll go is $450 + $65 shipping. Who does that? Why even have best offer? I might have bought it at buy it now if it were simply $450... but putting $460 or best offer and only moving down to $450 is just stupid.

You can also ask about additional items that are not listed and the seller will email you photos. Although, some may be more expensive than $25 ...

Have you never sold on ebay before? I get 90% of my BIN/BO listings purchased at full price - eventhough I'll obviously entertain lower offers - why? because ebay buyers are idiots and too scared to let a "good deal" pass by (whether it's a good deal or not).
And the other 10% of people like a deal - and when you do a best offer, buyers feel they "saved 5%" or whatever
