Still available and still unworn - reducing the price to EUR 1.950 plus shipping - open for valid arguments or offerings if you believe that the asked price is way over the top for an unworn original Buco/ Real McCoy...

Sent you a DM!

I just bought this same one (in 40). One of my fav jackets to be honest. Such a perfect moto iteration!

Yet another - but last time reduction to to EUR 1.800 plus shipping - open for valid arguments or offerings if you believe that the asked price is way over the top for an unworn original Buco/ Real McCoy...

I hope the mods don't see this as out of line- you've stated twice now that you're open to dialogue about pricing, so I figure it's okay...

My friendly advice would be that you aren't that active a member and it doesn't appear you've done a deal here before, and you want to be paid in a manner that leaves no recourse for a buyer should things turn bad. None of those things are innately deal-breakers, but when you stack them, something has to give, and that usually has to be the asking price. I don't think you'd have any problem moving the jacket were you asking $1600 USD, for instance.

But at roughly $2100 USD, people are looking at saving $500 off a jacket from a dealer, which is nice, but that savings has to do a lot of load-bearing work for the deal... without a track record, without recourse if you turned out to be a bad actor, I think some folks might think that the savings isn't enough to justify the risk.

Just some thoughts, please don't take anything the wrong way, certainly not accusing you of being a bad actor... Just newer to selling. We were all newer sellers here at one point, asking people to take a risk on us.

I also think it's priced a bit high, as I can say from experience, in trying to currently sell my brand new with tags size 40, that I'm not getting sold for $1899/1666EUR. So assuming shipping going to run 75eur, OP is asking $2165 at present, PLUS there will be tariffs to import into the states.

I think he'd move this, if the price was 1500-1600EUR *shipped*. He's probably 20%~ too high at present, even after the drops. It's a big loss, but it's just current market on these.


and again, just like @Bender, mean no offense OP, just some honest advice if you're keen to move it on as you mentioned open to pricing discussion. Good luck with the sale!
