Odd that the tunic is sewn with so precise sting, but the eagle is quite lazy attached.
Even for a field made tunic, the pockets are quite strange.

Looks like a "repro" made from period material and using "original" buttons and insignia

Re: Splinter tunic on Ebay
The eagle could have been removed on capture, or so the jacket could be used postwar, and then re-attached for sale perhaps? I've heard about this happening quite often.
Otherwise it does look good, but as already mentioned it could be made postwar from an original zelt.
