Farb hall of shame: Farbiest uniform ever on ebay

[D1861]

You guys are going to love this one. Is the seller dishonest or just that ignorant? A three piece suit modified to look like an arty uniform? Can any of you top this one? lol http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...category=36041

Mr. Slay, I have relocated this discussion to the Sinks, where it may be more appropriate. In general, discussion of eBay items is inappropriate for the Authenticity discussion areas.

Moonshine,
Aren't you being a little hard on the mustache? I mean, come on, isn't it obvious that he is marketing women who do a soldier impression? :wink_smil That mannequin looks just like some of the questionable "soldiers" you might see at one of the dog and pony shows.

I absolutely had to send this guy a nasty gram. I mean c'mon, think of all the new people to this hobby who don't know any better. Think of the jeers they are going to get if they even think about going out in the field with this junk! :angry_smi

The Mustache: Amazing Poly-fiber content! Sticks right on your face!

I am truly disgusted.

Mymymy,

How much this popular discussion is serving to enhance my knowledge of the American Civil War! What diligent research and superb content! What educated and well-researched insights into the bettering of authentic reenacting through discussions of valid historical topics!

...That was sarcasm, by the way, I am in earnest,
