I'm a sucker for a bit of Tigerstripe camo (when it's done well). Saw the rmc M-65 the other day and fell in love with it but there's no way I could justify/afford £575 for an m-65. Any one got any ideas where I could get another high spec tiger stripe m-65? Buzz ricksons did do one but as of yet I'm yet to find anywhere that actually has them in stock… @davito any recommendations old chap?

Wtaps did one a long time ago, check out Stylisticspace on eBay he usually has a good selection.

Let me think about it @Cutlasshound of course the RMC is absolute top reprowise but understand you, will get back at you

Cheers @Megatron1505 and @davito the responses are most greatly appreciated!

@Cutlasshound i assume you looking for a repro jacket not used vintage? Buzz ricksons seems sold out for that jacket.. There is another japanese Company called Mash co specialised in Military wear, i haven't seen a tigerstripe jacket but you might ask them if they can help you further

Cheers old chap much appreciated! Would rather get a repro I think.
Did look at mash ages ago before I bought my buzz ricksons tigerstripe overshirt but had forgotten all about them. Many thanks and happy new year!

Has anyone ever had a "too good to be true" deal on eBay?
I've had a original 70's Sammy Miller Belstaff Trialmaster Professional on my watch list for the last week, they usually go for upwards of £400. This one had a starting bid of £89, and I kept watching but no one bid, so I won it for £89.
The seller has 100% feedback selling vintage gear (loads of Bellstaff jackets), the pictures were big and clear, the description was extremely detailed, it has all the original features in good working order (lightning zippers etc….), so I can;t work out why it went for so little? Have I just been unfeasibly lucky?
I figure if I don't like it, or it doesn't fit right I can flip it for double what I paid without any hassle....weird.

@Megatron1505 being an owner of 3 belstaff jackets at the mo, and coveting the "sammy miller" and the p.roper "i am legend" models, i can say that this is your gift courtsey of Karma as a result of your good deeds. there is no way that a "sammy miller" goes for what you got it for. clearly it was meant to be for you at this price…...............

and deservedly so

Thanks guys, it just struck me as odd, I love Trialmasters and as you say it really should not have been that cheap.
-
What's the market like for Belstaff jackets in the UK? EBay listings in the US are overrun with professional sellers listing them with Buy It Now prices that aren't worth the effort.
The company's retail network is pretty terrible, too…

Seven years ago, I got a Trialmaster from 1967 on bay. Perfect condition and a reasonable price. Fingers crossed Mega.
