Signal boost for an eBay sale claiming to be CD selling a piece of FK memorabilia (?)

[personal profile] nicholas_lucien posted that she saw a listing on eBay where the seller says she's Catherine Disher and that she's selling a jacket that, supposedly, GWD designed and had made for her and a few other cast members. Bidding has started at $500 CAD (~$350 USD) and will go for 8 days. [personal profile] nicholas_lucien is seeking thoughts on the matter.
"Forever Knight Cast Jacket. / I played Natalie on the cult favourite, 90's vampire/cop show Forever Knight. During either season 2 or season 3, Geraint Wyn Davies ( Nick ) had just a few jackets made for key cast that he designed himself. This one was made for me. It was made by Roots ( so very solid, quality construction ) and has mottled grey, leather sleeves ( the leather hasn't aged- it was designed to look like that ). Its in excellent shape- its hardly ever been worn and has been in storage for the last 20 years. Although I am very sentimental about the show, I am determined to get rid of my storage room and this jacket should be worn and enjoyed and not sit in a storage bin for another 20 years!!! Its a unisex, varsity style and the label says Large- I'm assuming its a women's large because the snaps are on the left side."

I am not an expert on eBay, memorabilia, or Catherine Disher's likely decluttering choices. I suppose, worst case, it's a nice, fan-made jacket with a story; best case, it's exactly what it says on the tin.

Oh, that is really interesting! I hope it ends up with someone who'd wear it. Even if it's not really what it's supposed to be, that's actually not a bad price for rare vintage merch from a 30-year-old show.
