USAF E-9 uniform

[Mike Page]

While in the local "vintage" store I ran across a USAF BDU with E-9 stripes on it. I've seen E-8 a couple times but never Chief Master Sgt. I'm wondering if other forum members ever encounter this rank and what the collectability is; I read that only 1% of the air force enlisted personnel are allotted this rank.

Thoughts?

EDIT: Stripes are without the diamond.
