"they even sold the shirt off his back"

No, I'd rather use that money to buy a ticket to visit the UK.

Besides, what's the point of having a shirt? Will the shirt write a song for you? Will the shirt sing for you? Is it special because Freddie and you were friends and he wore it at one of your birthday parties? And what are you going to do with that shirt, build a shrine? Does anybody care about you having it? I love Freddie, but his memorabilia is not that interesting to me.

Farrouk Bulsara!  Come here this instant!

Hi. Please explain this exceptionally fugli garment.

I DON'T CARE if it was 1985!

Even it was 1985 from various photos of him he had a lot of dubious looking shirts!!!

You can collect the work of a person. But you cannot collect "a person".
This is where it's getting sick. Imagine someone collecting your unwashed socks.....simply bizarre.
 I'm not talking about special costumes that were part of the show. Those are part of the work of an artist and should be part of exhibitions. But collecting some worn t-shirt of someone you never knew is more than strange.

Personnaly, I don't think this shirt looks very special...

Some clothing could be worth the money, like:
- Yellow Wembley jacket
- It's a hard life - costume
- Made in heaven jacket
- Earl's Court - white/red/green ehm.... thing

if im sure he wore it and i had the money then yes!

I dont think its right that peoples everyday clothing should be sold like this

The best stuff is the stage gear which has more value and by value i dont mean moneywise but sentimental wise if that makes sense

I'd have to see Freddie actually wearing this before I believed it was genuine. I think that's a Ben Sherman from the mid to late 90's.

The seller claims that the shirt freddie is pictured wearing on the cover of Mercury and me is similar but its not really other than the fact that its pattened

Different colour and the pattern doesn’t match up, for example compare the collars.

I wouldn't spend a fucking dime for any kind of shit like that.
