Is there something I’m missing with this jacket?

Seller has no reviews but it has returns so eBay would cover it. Looks like it’s in great condition, why such a good price? Am I missing something

that looks to be an orphaned suit jacket that someone probably snagged at thrift and is now flipping.
for that price I could get a pair of matching pants with it though
you are unlikely to find a matching pair of pants for this
that color and fabric isn’t too uncommon though
It's tougher than you think to find an identical fabric. A pair of pants that is close but not identical will end up looking and feeling off. Something like a grey wool twill sounds easy, but then you realize the yarn of the pants is just slightly shinier and looks off. Or it's slightly more brown. Or it's a thicker yarn so it is visually arresting
ahh okay thanks
Yes to all the above, but know too that Saks Off Fifth used to sell Made in Italy suits with Zegna fabric. They're decent bargain suits but were never high end.
