I've always admired the way you buy jackets/coats/blazers online with ease.  I've also always had a huge problem with fit, where 2 of 5 of my blazers were professionally altered.  One blazer runs 14" armpit to armpit (it's just a shell with no lining); three blazers run 15" armpit to armpit; and the remaining blazer runs 16" armpit to armpit (a little loose, but not enough for me to alter).  Meaning, this should be okay . . .

I really wouldn't want to bid more than $100, though, just bc this is a HUGE risk for me . . . even though this is Chanel, and I've easily plopped $200 on each of my theory blazers.  Gah, the perils of online shopping . . .

Update:  Seller says $15 shipping to US.

A -- 3/27/11: Love the color, love the hardware, loveCHANEL.  A lil uncertain on the length - where would this hit on you?  It could possibly look a lil sailor-ish, but then that's not a bad look!  If you can get for $100, I would approve.

T, 3/27/11:  Seller says it's 29" from back of neck to hem, and tag says 38.  In any case, someone already bid, so I guess I prob won't get it.

T, 3/29/11:  Sigh, ended at $275, with 1 bid.
