Check it.  Actual vest.  AND- look at the color...goes to show, that the actual colors of the vests used were almost nothing like what showed on screen.  They probably used crazy filters on the cameras.

So, this raises the question...would you want a vest that looks like this?  Or would you want a vest that looks like what you 'think' the vest is supposed to look like, rather than it actually did.

Weird.

Cool but $4000=$6000 without the orinial patches?!?!? What happened to the original patches? Why were they removed?

Also I knew Cochise. He was in "A Few Good Men" when it was on broadway where I worked backstage before it was a movie. Nice but quiet guy and his trademark afro was LONG gone...

:)

the origional patches were removed, so this dude tracked down the guy who made the origional patches. and he got another set. that what it says. oh, and it also says that the minimul amount he'll accept for the vest is 50 grand. look at the very bottom of the page. or i might be wrong, i'm still kinda new to ebay.

He wants between $4000 and $6000 for the vest. The $50,000 is a "buyer's premium" percentage you have to pay on top. That is ASS. Say you paid $5,000. It really wouldn't be $5,000, it would be close to $5900. The guy's high....

And once again, the most valuable thing about the vest IMHO, the patches aren't even original.

Just my 2 cents..

Ive seen that seller before.  Always seems to be overpriced.  Fun to look at the items though.

with this vest you can see that mondotees is clearly wrong
the color is very light and the trim diamonds are orange not white so....
and this guy may think hes really smart cause if you look at the patches they are dirty just like in the movie so maybe very rich colleccionist will buy it thinkin its all original

now thats mad fugazi!  ;)

its funny how he says all the patches were removed from the vests after the movie, yet theres 8 other vests out there all with the patches still on them....riiiight  :roll: 
for the price hes asking, you'd think he have a certificate of authenticity from paramount or something to go along with it but as it stands, i think its a fake.
