Because it's not really worth selling? I've got a Belstaff jacket fully armoured codura. I've been asking £5 for it just for postage costs.

I've not had any takers for since 2006.

Belstaff? You're not doing it right. Advertise it as "cafe-racer ultra-rare vintage pre-distressed hipster authentic biker jacket", starting at £150, buy-it-now of £250. You know it'll sell Smile

Return it or sell it - as for postage costs I just Ebay/Gumtree for local collection on any big items usually.

Check if theres a local 'biker' group on facebook in your area too - quite a few accept/have additional sub groups to advertise selling stuff. It does require you have to tollerate reading through some of the inane, repetative drivel that gets posted on the facebook pages, however Whistle.

Sending leathers to ambulance services or fire services could help them practice removal and what not

Because you asking too much for it, I'd give you £3.20 and a half eaten snickers for it
