I was told to post this here. Found this at Goodwill. Priced at $7.99. I got an additional 30% off that price, so paid $6 for it.

Nom nom noming myself for this suit. Paid more than thrift, but considering these retail for 15k to 35k, I'm well under 1%...and with ticket pocket, working cuffs, I'd imagine this one was closer to $20k.

Don't think I've seen one posted before, either.

I allllllmoooooost feel sorry for Spoo in here. If anyone else posted that, they'd be the runaway winner and this thread would be shut down hard. For him, it's like "oh. Spoo found an entire county's worth of insane **** again. I'll just post these 4 Hermes ties and somehow get more votes than him at the end of the year."


Hmm... Not four, but I did find three in one thrift stop for 21 cents each... One has already sold.

I don't stand a chance AT ALL but:
1. I found that same counting sheep Hermes with G M-h for $5 and sold for triple digits.
2. Does it count if Silverwarebandit bought 5 Attolini bespoke suits with my money?
3. I just bought a mislabeled Orazio suit on eBay for $140 shipped. It fits.
4. I bought a Cucinelli down and cashmere puffer along with 5 other jackets for Around $200 ppu, sold the puffer for more than the purchase price for everything. Kept the rest.
All I can think of now.
I know I need pics. But some of that stuff is long gone. Will see if I posted to Styleforum.
