Do you guys ever buy vintage with slight discolouration at the collar
Sometimes I find an item that just hits the right spot but then its mentioned in the description that there's slight yellowing on the collar. Now sometimes I still buy the item but with (suit) jackets and things that aren't easily washable I'm a bit more scared. Wanna get some second opinions.

dry cleaning can solve this sometimes. this is a phenomenon that will happen with wear anyways so I don’t let mild yellowing stop me from buying anything if I like it otherwise
as heckle said dry cleaning can often resolve this
depending on the material/how much you care you may also be able to spot treat it with baking soda or oxiclean (patch test first). it's worked for me for a lighter colored wool suit but ymmv
thanks for the advice guys
its cotton, im doubting wether or not i should pull the trigger. i think the colour is beautiful and it would work with my wardrobe (grey & navy suit trousers, ecru and light denims)
only thing im unsure about now is the fact that its a 3 button
