on another site i saw a seller posting a color block wippette for over 150 when you can get them for much less. bestnewyorkvintage sells these types of raincoats and buyers are willing to spend an absurd amount for one that should never be worth more than 50. it is lower quality than PUL's raincoats which you can get for a reasonable price. i got a matte raincoat from the same seller at a decent price.

who are good raincoat sellers on ebay?

Is this rukka not much different from the more traditional design? for over a year i was searching for a rukka that would fit me because many times they are a size 34-38.

I can't believe how much the raincoats can sell for on bestnewyorkvintage's page. I just saw a shiny blue reversible, which was medium length, sell for over 240. for some reason, it is this one seller i have noticed where the auctions can really spike.

For goodness sake, do the hippy hippy shake

What you really mean is you cant believe people will pay more than YOU

A seller can choose whatever price they want to charge and its up to the buyer to decide what price they want to pay, it really is that simple

And if the seller's price is higher than the buyer is willing to pay then NO sale!
