The catch is you have to buy ten of them. Says they come with 1 battery and charger. Seller is based in USA and does accept paypal. I'm debating buying a 10 lot. I don't really want to. I've sent him a email, i'll see what he says.

I'm sure if i did buy a 10 lot, i could sell the rest off for 60 bucks shipped.

Anyways, here's the link if someone else is interested...

And if someone else did buy a lot, i'd pay 60 shipped:p

To me it shows it is $312 for each one and a min order of 10 so that would be over 3k

I've bought a lot of stuff from china and i'm pretty sure the unit is 10. 312 is a little much for a jacket that retails for 149.99 at most retailers.

There are also selling non milwaukee brand on the site for 25/ea.

I agree that it does look like this. On the other hand, I can't see anybody buying them for that price. So, just to get some clarification, and because a large doesn't do me much good, I sent them this email:

"Do these jackets come in anything other than Large? Also, can I get a price for a minimum order, shipped to 76048?

Thanks!
Andrew"

I'll post back on here later with their reply, if I get one.

has anyone evern wore one of these, worth a dam??

seems gimicky to me

Yes I bought one a year and half ago when they were on sale through Milwaukee's website. They work, mine doesn't have a hood and that is a big minus, other than that they keep you a lot warmer than the three layers of clothes I use to wear. Most of the heating elements are in the stomach and chest area but they do run a few past the pockets. If I turn it up all the way I feel it get hottest in the chest and upper back.

They have to come in at least xl if not 2x because there is no way mine would fit otherwise. I'll look the size up when I go to work today.

Checked mine and it is a 3x so they do make them in bigger sizes, to be warned I usually comfortably wear a 2x shirt or carhart and the 3X M12 jacket isn't any too big.

Gimmick is in the eye of the beholder but they're really nice jackets period. The jacket alone can often be had for around $100, and it's hard to find a nice, durable, warm heavy jacket for that. I'm not talking Wal-Mart jackets, I'm talking REAL jackets.

If you have no M12 stuff then yeah, you've gotta buy the kit with battery and charger............or if you have M18 get the jacket alone with the M18 adapter (about $30).

They only have three heat zones: each breast and upper back. The newer men's jackets have pocket warmers too.

I love mine. I have some health issues and need to keep my torso warm. The jacket itself is nice, but the heating elements make for oh-so-toasty goodness! I'm sorry I waited so long to buy one...well, except for the 50% off part.

:)

I have one BRAND NEW in size Large that I bought for $100 and don't need. I bought it for a gift in case I needed that size. It is the new style black jacket with charger and battery. It is the newer jacket with two zones - one for chest/back and one for the pockets. It also has a USB port so you can charge your phone if need be, although I've never used mine that way.

I believe I could ship it in the lower 48 for about $12-$16. If anyone is interested please EMAIL (not PM) me. First EMAIL gets priority.

*** Edit - Jacket is sold pending receipt of funds. ***

I work out in the cold all day in the winter. Saw these last year but couldn't convince myself I needed one.

Just wondering how long the batteries last before needing to be swapped out or charged?

About four hours on high... At least that has been my experience. Im wearing mine right now. Two batteries typically get me through a full work day.

My jacket is red, bought I when they were first released in one color. Hoping to get a black one at some point.

Speaking from experience, if you regularly wear a XXL in t shirts and button downs, the XL is fine for you. So by that logic most guys that wear an XL could probably wear that large.

I bought the heated hoodie, rather than the overcoat. I can put the heat under any coat in any weather now. and it fits perfectly under my Carhartt work coat.

This. The jackets are sized big, unless you truly need the size for arm length.

Well...doesn't look like this guy returns email. I'm going to see if my sister can visit the fake milwaukee factory, right next to the real milwaukee factory. She's coming home for xmas, maybe she can bring some jackets if she has time.

I call these **** jackets. I called them **** jackets when they had these for skiing and/or general winter (some time ago). Of course, I only believe in "cold weather" jackets as far as they cause you not to die from exposure.:lol:

When you're working outside, heating isn't required because you heat yourself and the coat keeps the heat in. Maybe it's for getting your nails done and/or visiting the tanning salon between getting out of your range rover in a strip mall, I don't know.

(who did I offend?):lol:

That's true (because it was created by their government) but it is also not true because there's sellers from other areas. It's a good resource though; you can determine what people pay for stuff and pay accordingly. That's extremely important so you don't get hosed.

:lol:

I'm offended you would suggest I drive a Range Rover. It is a Mercedes sir! And it's not only a manicure as I love my pedicures too and to do one without the other is, well, unthinkable. You must be one of those people who drives common-folk vehicles and suffers from poor personal grooming!! (as I spin about in a huff and throw the sleeve of my heated jacket over my shoulder)

and since no one on this board can seem to tell..................I might be kidding and there might be some sarcasm somewhere in there.

I was going to say ford raptor but I knew that would've offended about 30 guys on here.:bounce:

I know I know...offroad! But always spotless. Everyone and their cousin has one here that will never see the dunes so..."status" symbol like an automatic corvette. Oh, I just offended more people, there I go again.:scared:

Both potential buyers dropped out, so I still have the BRAND NEW, latest version Black size Large jacket for sale. You pay what I paid ($100) plus shipping of $16 to the lower 48. First EMAIL (not PM) gets first crack at it.
