The official thrift/discount store bragging thread - Part II (May 2015 - Sept. 2018)

[Takai]

I was so close to muttering a 'Brodeetz?' in a store the other day...if any SF Nashvillians besides Takai were in MCT yesterday around lunch...

Bru, Im pretty sure, you, me, D, and @Shoeluv are the only locals in this area. Would be cool if we got some new blood though.

 

[Snoogz]

I have something to add to the box, I'll be passing it along from another member.. PM me deets to send it off.

Is this the Hilfiger I want?






Left this behind cuz I know nothing about fur. It would've been like $8. Let me know if I should cop?

Wasn't me, I haven't been out in a month. Have way to much back stock.

 

[ReubenR]

@GMMcL , what were you saying about patch pockets?

I might be completely wrong, but I'm pretty sure when it says "clean by fur method", that means it's synthetic fur.

Fine by me. Just had no idea. Thanks!

Your wife should be very proud! AND I should thank you for finding such a fantastic LV bag and researching it and selecting the best one and buying it and shipping it FROM JAPAN in a few days. INCREDIBLE. This is the best deal I have ever gotten on the MOST MINT Louis Vuitton i have seen. Seriously. If my Wife didn't have an idea that something would be coming in the mail for her, I would consider selling this and as nice as it is, I would still make good money! But, our Anniversary is on the 28th and she will LOVE this LV.

Bunch o trafalgars



Canali wool silk puppy tooth



Cool textured tweedy varvatos MII 48



I thought these were incotex for sure at first





Fancy old lady gear - 330 says I hit pay dirt with these



Pop!



First Hermes scarf - legit?

This got the blood pumping. Arnys sizing is wild, this fits better than the Sz 40 veste forestiere.

Dude all the Thriftening stuff before (the $125,000 worth of suits) and now this? I know it doesn't quite compare, but St. John and Hermes in the same week? Send some thriftening down south to Kansas!

Nice Hand-Made Briefcase today.

If I didn't already have too many briefcases, I would be all over that. Very nice!

 

[aging in rhythm]

Scored on a few deminz pickups today: ALL AVAILABLE

Brand new, totally unworn pair of size 31 RPMWESTs

And two pairs of Kicking Mule Workshops 1980s, one wornish pair of 31L and one newish pair of 32R

 

[Nobleprofessor]

I will try to take pictures later, but I went to an estate sale and bought all women's items. But, the were a gorgeous sheared beaver fur coat (insert beaver joke here), a mouton Fur coat, a SEAL fur coat, a Burberry trench coat with liner, a Burberry Harrington, and a Lucchese Ostrich Belt (mens). At a different sale, I got a pair of 1940-50's Lee Striped Overalls, a NOS Stetson Open road with box, and more.

Plus, I was interviewed on TV last night and today and one of my cases was on the front page of the paper!

 

[silverwarebandit]

So here's the coat. It's got a wildly big collar, no buttons or belt loops. Anyone know if this style has a name? Also, leftofthedial said vicuña runs $1500 a yard

 

[Versace Guy]

You sir, just won this thread.

Seriously, wtf......
WTF
