Hey everybody,
I sell a decent amount of vintage tees on eBay, and I would like to submit two awesome vintage tees to the vintage experts for pricing opinions. The first is an incredible Harley shirt that I discovered last week. The shirt is incredibly thin and worn to vintage perfection. A few small holes and small tears. I haven't seen another skinhead type harley shirt quite like this one. Tag is Hanes 50/50. All thoughts on what to expect price wise would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Rare Skinhead Harley shirt
Wow. Harley dealers aren't known for their political correctness ...but that one takes the cake. A swastika? But that's a Hell's Angels owned Harley store - one of their legit businesses now known as California Choppers.
Similar back below.

Price - could fly....if it doesn't get pulled. I would hope it would be hampered by the fact that most people wouldn't wear it. But something tells me it will bring in some good loot.

Re: Rare Skinhead Harley shirt
Careful listing that on ebay. Anything with Nazi symbols (technically, only nazi money and postage stamps are allowed) is likely to get pulled.
I tried to list that some silly Ralph Lauren P-bear shirt where the bear was dressed as a nazi, and it got pulled after a couple days.

Re: Rare Skinhead Harley shirt
I too am not known for my political correctness, but I got to be honest...although this tee is a rare vintage find, I wouldn't hesitate to put in my fire pit.
However, I would never tell you what you should or should not list. I'm sure if listed it will bring a lot of bidders; there's a good chance ebay will pull it down. Good luck!

Re: Rare Skinhead Harley shirt
Then again, unlike our honest politician, I admit that most of the time I am for sale.
Re: Rare Skinhead Harley shirt
It's definitely a collectors piece!
But just like everyone already mentioned it's not likely to fly on eBay.
Good luck!

Re: Rare Skinhead Harley shirt
Thanks for all of the input. I listed the shirt on eBay with a $700 buy it now and the auction was pulled within 6 hours. Apparently things get really tricky when you put "Hells Angels" in the title. Even in the short time that the shirt was for sale, I had a few offers and was able to sell the shirt off of ebay for 1/2 of my asking price. Pretty pleased with the overall sale since it became obvious that I was going to have some real issues selling the shirt on eBay.
