Question Help finding a trench coat.

Sorry to be a bother, but, I need help finding a trench coat; but not just any trench coat, a black floor length double breasted trench coat. I've already tried local thrift and military surplus stores, which were painfully lacking in anything even resembling a trench coat. The only other parameters that really need to be met is that it's less than $50 and available on a site that ships from the US.
Once again, thanks for your help.

One word: Ebay.

Yeah, I'd say check eBay and thrift shops when possible. With that small of a price range it's going to be difficult finding a quality coat brand new. At least, in my limited experience.

To update, $50 is just sort of a minimum; I could go as far as $110 if need be.

Thrift shops are good, and try auction houses, too.

I was very lucky: Four years ago, I happened to see a black military-type trenchcoat hanging in my aunt's auction house. I mentioned to my mom that I'd like to have it and I hoped she didn't sell it before I got a chance to buy it. My mom told my aunt and she let me have it for free. I still wear it.

So yeah, try auction houses, they accumulate all kinds of random shit, you might just get lucky too.

I'm thinking of splurging next year (it takes me that long to save up!) and buying a trenchcoat from Northbound Leather. I'm not sure if they'll have the same stock (doubt it, in fact), but last summer they had a gorgeous trenchcoat with lacing down the back and bell sleeves. *drool*
