These things can go for some STUPIDLY huge amounts of money. Even the ones in poor condition. Congrats!

Steve,
Thank you.
Believe me, I know. I have been stalking these for years. The incredible thing is that I found it in my size, an improbable size XL Reg.
Have seen a few small sized examples, and invariably, they are mostly pretty ragged. Had a set (again, small sized) years ago, but gave it to a friend.
I stole this thing...... almost wanted to pay the seller more for it. It is in near mint condition, with all the original buttons.
Thank you.

Yup,
Did locate 1st pattern trousers; they are not nearly in as good a condition as the coat.
Also, the price is insane. I have made a reasonable offer, and would not mind grabbing them,
but can be totally happy with only the coat, if the seller declines said offer.
Can not always have it all, and common sense has to prevail, on occasion...
