So I'm looking at buying this jacket off of ebay.  I'm not too sure if it's gonna be too big on me or not.  I'm 5' 7" weighing 180lbs. 22 years old.  Do you guys think it'll fit me?  The thing that's got me is it's a large. I really like this jacket.

I'd go out and try one on, then buy it, but this one's cheap.

here's a pic of me


and here's one of the jacket

Probably.  Worst case scenario, it's a little big and you flip it (if the price is good).

This one?

So far it's looking like it's going to be around $75.  The bid ends in a day and a half.  I win almost all of my bids though.  I'm kind of a cheater.  I know all the tricks to bidding on ebay. lol.

flip it?

Sell it to someone else.  Someone on here may be interested, or you could always put it back on ebay/craigslist.

Heck, if you don't mind keeping it around, you could always save it for cooler nights and wear a hoodie under it.

Very true. I have some lighter hoodies that I could put under it.  If it doesn't fit, I guess I could probably get away selling it for the same price as I get it.  I found the same jacket for $200.

I guess it's brand new, so I'd just keep the tags on it.

Yea.  That's the one.  NOBODY ELSE BID ON IT! Lol.  I had someone on the hyundai forum max my bid on a part I needed when I had the link posted on the forum.

Just a thought....  If it were a medium, I'm sure will undoubtedly fit me, ya' think?  If so,  Maybe I'll ask if he has any in stock, and try to get him to send me a medium instead.  I've checked his inventory on ebay, and didn't see any.  Didn't see any anywhere on ebay actually.

just buy from revzilla.com - you get one free return if the size is wrong. they hooked me up when my boots were too big. great customer service there. also they have a ton of hd videos of all their products.

Sweet link.  thanks.  If this jacket doesn't work out, I like this one:
