Hmm, "seller will post world wide". Be a bit awkward to wrap I should think.

I see the seller describes them as new. eBay's help pages say:
Guideline for describing an item's condition as "new": An item can be listed as new if it's unused, fully functional and has no signs of damage or wear.
He'll need an export licence, then, as well as a big box and lots of stamps!

''Do you need a keyboard with a 'PAWS' button?''


''...If Airdog Fido doesn't like the sound of it's own growl, it could always use the 'Alt Gr' key..''


''But that might scare the mouse away.''


...And he'd have to pop outside to use the 'TAB' function during his PAWS/break

One would have thought the old boy would have been proud to keep his "Master Race" attire... and a signed photo to boot.... look great on any blunties desk....

Also:

This is a RAF Officers No.1 Home Dress Uniform, consisting of jacket and trousers, made by R.E.City of Camberley. The jacket is ranked as a sqn ldr, with pilot's wings, medal loops underneath and 5 medal ribbons:

MBE, General Service Medal (NI), 1991 Gulf War (with Rosette), Kosovo 2000, and the Queens Golden Jubilee Medal. The jacket has also brass sword hooks incorporated in the material.

Quite impressive... but rather sad someone felt the need to sell it (if indeed they know it is on sale...)

I think the powers that be at RAFAT might have something to say about one of their previous members selling his uniform on Ebay.

Too Fat for a Red suit

Indeed, such a red item should at least be offered to a more suitable home, perhaps as a cleaning rag for the BBMF?
