Default Selling a Houston Oilers jacket, how can I find out how much its worth?

I'm selling this jacket for a friend of mine and he said that someone offered him $150 for it at one time, but he didn't want to sell it at the time. He also said another person told him that it was worth $200-$250 and its a collectors item. I have not a clue as to how much its worth or how to find out. Anyhow, he wanted me to put it on Ebay, but I'm not sure what to put the reserve at. How can I figure out how much its worth? Its black, white, and light blue. It has Houston on the left arm. There are 2 tags on the inside. One that says Competitor and the other says NFL Game Day. Let me know how I can find out how much its worth, thanks.

Ebay has an oilers windbreaker for $25 ... same thing. Unless you find some oilers nut, I say it ain't worth too much.

I realize it isn't the same jacket, but it is the same make. I bet that windbreaker wasn't $25 new. I just don't think there is a huge demand for Oilers stuff ... maybe if some rap star wears it in a video ....

Put it on E-bay with a really high reserve and see how high it gets. If it doesn't meet your reserve price, you don't have to sell it.

There doesn't seem to be a lot of active interest in Oilers stuff on eBay, finding someone in-person who's interested would probably get you more money.

Here are two Oilers jackets (not windbreakers) that had a starting price of $150 and didn't get any bids:

The only thing I'm selling for friends is the hood which the guy lives down the road (same neighborhood) and then another friend who doesnt have an Ebay account muchless gets on the computer.
