that's true. i like supporting retailers and free markets, but I don't like concepts like luxury taxes. i think it punishes people for being "successful" and for spending big $$$. its really bad in places like australia and new zealand where luxury taxes are ridiculously high. well, you alread7 know this, living in AU, right?

actually i don't think New Zealand has a luxury tax.

That was just Yoox being wankers.

GST is 12.5% on any item being sold, and then duties can be from 0-15%.

For some reason Yoox decided to add 40%, as well as it being about 15% more expensive than from the NZ site, and also charge $45 for shipping, even though Italy is exactly half way between the US and NZ.

Saw that model (not sure if they were the ones you got) on the 'bay but that toe thing is unattractive, imo.

. Yeah only wished it was a size or two bigger so I could wear it slightly oversized. But thinking it over, this might just be too cool to let go lol. I Could even cop this:

And use for a Halloween costume.

**** that plebeian ****, kop the Thom Browne astronaut suits (actually, there was a similarly themed TB oxford with an American flag patch that was only $215, was very temtped but not sure if it was an exclusive for FNO)

I believe it was the Lanvin leather (with wool sleeves) trench though I thought it'd be more expensive than that.

^dude, you seem like a nice guy but you're always trying to show how cosmopolitan you are with your food choices and your vespa and such. What a baller. Call me when you have a family to support, a mortgage, 529s, multiple 4-whelled vehicles (a.ka., cars) and can still rock rick and CCP. now that's ballin!

Got that for $20 in store in the bark color. It's very soft and fits nicely, I'm just not sure how well it'll work with white.

It's a funky light tanish color, I didn't really like the contrast it made with a white collar underneath. Maybe I was wrong, sorry. Edit: actually, i'd rather you were right because then it becomes something I can wear often, so I'll try it on again
