For me: multiple pairs of Vass before going MTO. Never would have had relatively low-risk access to them otherwise.

this is a good thread.

for last year the best item i bought hands down was actually a few things:


rlpl drake navy pinstripe db suit.

this was the bomb. superlative suit. i just adored it. unfortunately i had no reason for suits and also i am not a 42R anymore. so i sold it.


rlpl flannel wool dark charcoal chalkstripe pants w sideadjusters (size 48 /32 slim)

love this pants. most decadent pant i ever received. i bought it a size smaller just hoping to some day fit into it (because i didnt want to wear this fat) so i chanced buying a size 32. now it fits me like a model. i will have to tailor it one day (hem) so i can wear it to somewhere

I'll add the other side. My best sale - a Glashutte Original Senator Panorama date & moon. Sold more quickly on B&S even though posted on TZ and Purists beforehand!

Isaia navy linen suit, from Spoopoker. Fits me perfectly and I get compliments on it just about every time I wear it.

Hmmmmm.....

A couple of great Spano suits from Whusurdadi, a great tweed Flusser SC from Tweedydon, an Isaia suit I wore today from FStyles, a MF shirt from NDW that I am wearing into the ground and lots of great ties...

First ever buy on B&S: Zegna Su Misura jacket that fits me like a glove without any alterations. Seen here:

Shoes: 3 pairs of Grenson Rose collection shoes: light brown, dark brown, suede chocolate. I especially like this one:

Overall, I can say I was pretty lucky buying from the forum. Only about 15%-20% of the items I didn't like.

I was just able to buy whiskey and ravello longwings in my size a standard one for ~$1000 (one was new, one was worn twice).

Honestly though, I like the Panta stuff the best, it was new, and its the first pieces from a line that has GREAT potential.
