Is this guy for real? I call bullshit, but if someone else thinks it might be legit...maybe one of us could win out on this one.

It looks exactly the same, but that doesn't prove anything. I wouldn't bid on that..

The coat is cool, but I doubt it belonged to Axl.

I does look very cool! But he bought it from an auction, so.. for now there's no proofs against it either though.

Maybe it is true that the label refuse to give Axl any more money so he is auctioning off his stuff....  :hihi:

However, $200 for a Vanson leather jacket isn't bad.

I would buy it for being a Vanson Bones Leather Jacket... Not a Axl Rose worn jacket... you will just wonder the rest of your life if it was his or not. But, if you did get it for 200 dollars it's a steal for the jacket as is without it being Axl's. Maybe someone should just call him out and say it is cool... can you make more of them... So my conclusion believe what you want to believe... buy it if you like it... or buy it if you think it was his. I am going with not but, still want it cause it's a nice fucking jacket

Alright,  I just looked at the pics on the ebay site.... look very closely at the picture with AXL in it. 
Look at the far left side where you see the jacket over his left arm.    ya follow me?   ok.... now look at the bones hanging on the right arm of the jacket... look closely at the elbow and the alignment of the elbow (bones)  they are on top of each other.... now look closely at the jacket he has on display again.. the bones DO NOT LINE UP THE SAME..

this is a poor attempt on the sellers part to make some cash....   

everyone with me in the pictures??  see what I am talking about?  FRAUD

I did notice something there, and now that you've pointed it out it's pretty obvious to me. You're right. Thanks for that heads up.

Maybe because the coat isn't laid out the same, so of course they're not going to line up.

But shit, I think I might buy this jacket.

I hope someone here gets to by it, that's why I posted it. If it is Axl's jacket, or even if not, it would be a shame to have it go to some random fuckhead.

Go ahead and buy it.. I simply stated my opinion that it is a different jacket.. "isn't laid out the same" doesn't explain the difference in the width of the bones themselves...

Guess I should have also said that too... it is obvious it is not the same jacket...and I personally would not waste $200 on an attempt for someone to scam someone else with a false add..

People this is a reproduction. Axl's was more than likely taylormade. If you look at the black and white picture the arm bone on Axl's jacket looks twice as thick as the one for sale.

It's a nice jacket, but 100% not legit.

the "Axl's white jacket" has been auctioned a million times since 1996..... an endless bullshit

I think it's the same with this bones jacket
