Thank you so much for posting the link, bf!!

I never check on Ebay, so would have missed them if it weren't for you.

Yay, congrats on your buy, Sonja! 8)

I've seen people touch the shirt, just stare at them, cry, there have been numerous reactions.

I just looked at them.

I was fortunate enough to get to try on Ennis' hat and Jacket.

;D

Sason:
Thanks, Chrissi!

I'm a bit ambivalent whether to open them or not. They're still sealed, never opened.

CellarDweller:
Keeping them sealed can make them more valuable from a collector's standpoint.

In the 1990s Madonna published a coffee table book called "Sex" that was a collection of explict photos of her in various situations.

You could not look through the book, it was sealed in a large mylar envelope.



Most book stores did have a secluded station where you could view an open copy before buying it.

Most people who got the book opened it, and it cost $49.99.   I kept my copy sealed, and most collectors are showing the value of the sealed copy at about $500.00 now.

I know, and that's what my ambivalence is about.

I have to ask myself whether I want to keep them as a collector's item, or to be able to enjoy the beautiful pictures.

Decisions, decisions....
