    The official thrift/discount store bragging thread

    just for the record, i have seen a kabbaz shirt in a thrift store - only once, just a few weeks ago. i didn't buy it, not my size, and left it for another lucky person to find. and i have seen bespoke cleverly's with lasted trees for under $10, maxwell's for a similar price. but those prices...

    NYC Thrifts/Consignment/Exchange/Discount Stores

    I think you will have the best luck at gentleman's resale, but i think it's on 81st st not 80th. i go thrifting in nyc most weeks, and i think any thrifter will tell you that you only get lucky if you put in the time and the hours. so if you are only planning on being around for a day or a few...

    Best Dress Shoe Selection in West Palm Beach?

    please go to dan fiore's shop in palm beach. some of the second hand and consigned clothes are gorgeous, the shoes are not quite as good, but if you are in a regular size i think you'll come away with something you wouldn't have found elsewhere. check out my previous post entitled palm beach.

    The British Thread.

    Too true Felt. I think the fact that PBS bought a job lot of Benny Hill some years ago accounts for the fact that Americans think that we have any affection for him.

    Any One for a Scotch?

    Kent i think there are many 10 yr olds worth drinking. My current favourite is the macallan 10 year old finished in french oak barrels. i'm finding the peaty speysides tough going by comparison. i have the macallan 10 and caol ila going at the same time, and i'll finish three bottles of macallan...

    The British Thread.

    Biggles Takes It Rough. That is hilarious. It's been close to twenty years or more since I even thought about Biggles, now I'm stuck thinking about Algy. It's been a few years since we lived in England but this morning we had PG Tips and beans on toast. Nice crumpet by the way Nick.

    What are you reading?

    dormouse, you are too kind. i adore mfk fisher. my favourite is the one where she goes through one meal and analyses it. my favourite moment was learning there is nothing you can buy in an american supermarket that has not been touched by corn (except maybe the fresh fish if they have any). hate...

    palm beach

    humrepair, mastershake, i'd be very interested to know what you make of fiore's. and i hope you all have better luck in thrifting than i did. i think bradford is right about the average age in palm beach. i hadn't really thought of it until now, but the other thing i didn't see, apart from...

    palm beach

    Just spent a few days in palm beach, and there was much that reminded me of this forum. Here are a few observations in no particular order. The clothes: I saw much to enjoy. Nobody wears jeans. Without exaggeration, I did not see a single person, male or female, wearing denim. The women wore...

    New York Trip-Thrift\Consignment Shops

    but there are three good stretches that i know of: 17th st around 6/7, 23rd st bet 2/3, and 3rd ave from 79 to 84. it's all in the lap of the thrift gods, but you might check out housing works, city opera and goodwill on 23rd bet 3rd and 2nd, and the one round the corner on 3rd just south of...

    An idea: item request thread.

    Why do you buy used clothing?

    1. If you could only afford say $20 for a shirt or $30 for a pair of trousers what would you buy? Would you prioritise your own perception of what is hygienic over what is stylish or good value? 2. Do you have any other issues regarding hygiene and other people that might shed light on your...

    The official thrift/discount store bragging thread

    Thanks to the forum I take great pleasure in finding interesting items, not all of which i feel the need to buy. This week's finds include a double breasted h huntsman grey pinstripe suit. Actually it was my size but I don't wear double breasted suits. I admired it but it just wasn't for me -...

    The official thrift/discount store bragging thread

    This is interesting. What was the pattern, and style? I went back there today to see if I could pick it up and pass it on to summej2, but I'm afraid it had gone. But from memory the fabric was a heavy worsted, quite stiff to the touch, probably why it seemed to have lasted so well. Cut was...
