Ok, It's a Jacket... I've been thinking about putting it on Ebay, but not sure how much i should sell it for...

Being motor racing fans, as you guys all seem to be.. How much do you think i could put as a starting bid on it?

It's hand signed by Peter Brock & Larry Perkins...
Never been worn, sitting in my cupboard for Years.
It's XXL,and in Mint condition.

Just after some honest opinions, Moderators feel free to move this forum if i put it in the wrong spot :|

Cheers.

I'd just think of what I'd be willing to part with it for, and start there. The bidders will bid for what they think it's worth. Maybe check eBay for similar Brock items, which might give you an idea.

Best of luck.

My opinion is to hang on to it until Bathurst comes around again.
Brock will be mentioned a lot and people will start thinking about buying his memoribilia again so you should get and easy sale and more for it.

If you went to sell it now, you would only have a captive market of those that sit around looking for Brock produce, not everyone that normally wouldnt look for an item as such.

hope that make sense.

If you need the cash now, you might be better off having it framed maybe?
I couldnt say what it would be worth, but $1 starting price always brings a decent amount of attention and a higher final price (usually).
You could set a reserve of say $1000 (if it sells then youve done well) and see what the final price is for it.
If you are happy with that price - $300 for example - you could either then relist it and have the reserve at $300, list it as Buy It Now for $300 or offer it to the original highest bidder and see if he accepts the offer.

the $1 starting price does work better then a higher starting price or a buy it now. I have a faulty Xbox 360 on there with a starting price of $80 with a buy it now at $110 and got no interest, then put it back on there at $1 starting price and got $150 for it.
