The women’s cashmere sweatshirts from Cashmere High School in Tahari, in South Africa, are sold for as much as $400-$500 on eBay.
But a few weeks ago, they were selling for $400 on Amazon.com, according to an auction listing that said the sweaters are available for $150.
The listing was for one of the sweatshirts, called the Cashmere Hiker Sweater, which retails for $90.
Amazon sells a different sweater called the Gold Sweater for $100.
The seller, who goes by the name “Tahari Cashmere,” said he was inspired by the sweater market by other women’s sweaters on sale in the United States.
He said the sweater was “totally unique,” and that the seller would be selling it at his high school.
Taharis Cashmere sweatshirt sold for $450 on eBay in March.
Cashmere high School, located in the town of Olambe, in the Western Cape province, has one of South Africa’s highest unemployment rates.
It is one of many rural towns in the country that are struggling to recover from the effects of the global financial crisis.
The school’s women’s program was established in 1996 by the government and is supported by government funds and donations from members of the community.
In the school’s second year, it had more than 4,000 students, according the school website.
Cashmere High is one in a series of high school programs that support women’s education.
A new high school in the city of Johannesburg is also funded by government support, and a new high schools is planned in Cape Town.
