It's always arsehole newbies who fuck it up for everyone else when they start a bidding war!!

I actually looked at this raincoat when he first listed it, and I decided against bidding, much less buying because it was in such poor condition. If I'm going to pay this kind of money for a vintage mac, it's gotta be in far better condition than this one! You can't get these kind of marks out of it.

Frankly, I don't understand how some people just simply fail to look after such lovely rainwear and let it deteriorate like this

I agree mason about a bidding war, for me though I don't care what condition a vintage pvc mac is I love them old and well worn but yes each to their own hey.

The bidding finally finished at £315! I know that the raincoat can be classified as a collectors item. But did the winner get a bargain?

A SMALLISH shiny blue Rukka (with a belt) just sold for GBP380.00 ... or about $587.00 USD .... *sigh*

It was in excellent condition, but fairly small size.

Prices are just getting out of hand now. Thank God I bought up when I did: wonder how much they're worth now?

Another Blue Rukka with belt has been listed on E-Bay with a Buy Now price of £199.95.
Listed as a size 38 chest which is to small for me.
