First Drop

I am about to buy a 2011 never used first drop jacket for $75. I was wondering if the jacket is well seamed and if air can get through the closing of the detachable arms. Is it warm?
+k for help

I wouldn't pay that much. But that's just me. I'd set my limit at $25 for a FD jacket.

Yeah they are pretty warm. Not really sure about the zipper arm thing, i havent thought about it while skiing. 75 is a great deal for that jacket. People hate on Fd a lot, but i have never had a problem with mine.
