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

Is this the Opening Ceremony im looking for?

Yea that's the stuff you want.

 

[Jompso]

I can sleep again, thank you. Whew

I can't.

Are there any RayBan peeps here? These seem pretty decent, but I'm wondering if they are legit. My investment was all of $1.08, so not too big of a deal if they aren't.

Does this look familiar to anyone?

Dog made of tie silk, many seams sewn by hand. No markings, tags or signs of a tag having been removed, so I'm guessing Ralph Lauren store display? Cool nonetheless and will go in my library...as soon as I get one.

I'm getting a little overwhelmed with the stuff I have to sell and I'm getting busier with my real work.

Who are the T-Shirt guys?

Anyone want a whole box full of T-shirts for trade? I am willing to send them all to one person and that person can evaluate them and trade for the ones they want and donate the rest. I don't want them back. Whoever it is can tell me if there was anything worth trading for and send me what they are trading. Any takers?

Apparently I need to start browsing the stuffed animals section...

Reminds me of the Omersa stuff.

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

The B&L looks pretty good on the arm. I can't remember whether they experimented with Oakleyesque frames like that, but I'd be willing to bet they did. Sorry I can't 100% confirm, I'll try to look them up though. Is the lens etched? Can be hard to see sometimes, hold it under light.

Awesome. I remember seeing it, I'd guess Brooks Brothers or RL, but not Victoria's Secret as I haven't been in one in awhile. Oh, and everyone else sees the new green bars under usernames, right?

Thanks for the response. There is a small "BL" logo etched on the left and right sides.

Try to scrape it off. If it's truly etched, you should be good to go! You may have already seen these:

I can't vouch for everything that seller has as I haven't personally seen them all up close. I can say, however, that they have quite a few that look 10000% legit. At least your have a nice case, I hate the old Wayfarer case that was like a black envelope. EVERY time I find one, it has disintegrated and leaves a black powder on everything.

Seems good from my end... We'll see how it goes. Thanks for the feedback.

A HUGE and very heartfelt thank you to @drlivingston, whose generosity is incredible. After seeing my whiny, wistful response to his "fodder" Barbour Beaufort find a few days ago, he - incredibly - boxed it up and sent it to me! I'm stunned. Doc, you are too kind.
