What is the NS or ebay value of this jacket?

I have Tom Wallisch's Yellow Sweet Autonomy jacket that he used to wear when before he got on North Face. It is Yellow and in perfect condition if hand-washed. I was wondering how much I could get for this jacket either on NS or ebay. This is actually his jacket I bought it off him before he switched sponsors. (I am interested in selling it, not just bragging). You cannot buy Sweet products in America if this makes a difference. Just wondering what kind of price I could get for it so that I don't ask an absurd price and get shutdown. This is the exact jacket if you cant think of which one I'm talking about, thanks.

The part with this jacket is 3:45 if you just want to skip to it.

Forgot to mention that this jacket is only available in Europe. It also retails like $500 or something.

Don't flip stuff on NS, it's annoying. Put it up for bid on ebay...you'll for sure get more for it there if that's what you're interested in. If you're looking to hook up a fellow NSer with a good deal on a jacket they can't normally get (at or near what you paid for it...preferably less) then put it up for sale here - but don't try and sell it here for a ridiculous price so you can make a profit...that's what ebay's for, right?

That being said...

on ebay - start it at like $300 (or more if you paid more for it...go about $50-$100 over what you paid for it)
on NS - like I said, about what you paid for it...but no more than like $25...unless someone offers more for it, then it's on them.

I got it for a VERY low price because of the fact that he was getting rid of all his Sweet stuff. Don't remember the exact price.

Does the price that I payed change the selling value? Just Wondering Im not a big buyer/ seller

Not trying to annoy anyone or rip anyone off, just getting an opinion on a price I should look for so I don't get ripped off. I thought people on NS would know a lot about something like this.

I really want to but Tom was 4 inches shorter than me so it just doesn't fit me like I wish it would.
