for God's sake -- don't take the seller's word for anything. Research it a little and see if it really is a classic or a scam.
One guy on E-Bay is selling water polo suits for $185 assuming the buyer will think it is an actual country team suit and won't double check. In every case, the suits he sells can be purchased from Solar for $35.
Another scam is the Mark Spitz suits. The original suit he wore was 100% nylon. Speedo cam back in the late 90's and early 00's with a nylon/lycra copy of the suit. Guys are trying to sell the blends as original 1972 Olympic suits.
EBay is the best example of "Buyer Beware" you will ever run across.
