I have been looking and drooling over Magnoli's Open Road jacket. I had some ideas for some adjustments, and reading everyone's rave reviews here, I thought it would be well received by Mags...And so it was. Indy was very helpful and returned my pm's and emails very quickly (considering we are in different hemispheres
). I was getting excited!!! 
I was about to order, one thing remained, to sell my US Wings Antique Naked Cow (which I LOVED, but sadly the sleeves were just too short 
). I sold it and awoke Friday morning ready to place my order, being able to already feel that predistressed dark brown goat skin goodness in my hands . Only to find that, to my horror, the jacket had gone up $100 
. Now I'm back to scraping pennies, and because I've sold my Wings, I'm likely to spend my winter LEATHERLESS!!!!! . (Now here comes the moral...) The purpose of this little story is not to malign Mags, no, no, but to just say, "Carpe Tergum!!! (seize the hide...or something like that ) If you see something you want, GET IT. Don't wait!!!!OK, we now return to our program, already in progress...

I went to bed at eleven that night and gazed at it longingly one last time (don't laugh, you ALL have done it too
