Not that great to flip, on at least 10 of those pants you'd either break even or lose money if you pay $20 each and put them on ebay. That's assuming that we are talking flat fronts, if they are all pleated, you could possibly not make 1 red cent on the whole lot. The sweaters probably the same thing, other than the cashmere polo. The shirts you can throw in the garbage or give to charity. Also remember that ones man's "excellent condition" is another's "stained and tattered".

A 36" waist is considered a "big guy"? Looks like you hang out with your fellow 38R's too much.

If you have a 36" waist, you're fat. If you have a 17.5" neck you're either fat or lift too mcuh.

I'm a 38S, by the way, fucko.

You can't say that a 36 waist person is fat. Maybe all the ones you know are, but I know plenty of people who are size 36 waist or 38 that are more ripped than you could probably shake a figner at.

Looks like you're too sensitive about your waist size. 46 L/XL is definitely BIG by any standard.

Frankly with 2/3rd of America overweight, I'd say a 36W can be fat although it's just about the average waist size. Obviously depends on what those inches are made of. One of the world's strongest men, Mariusz Pudzianowski, has a 58" chest and a 38" waist.

That really doesn't make that sense, body frames will differ. No such thing as lifting too much.

Just saw a Costco sweater retailing for 20 brand new.

^ Is that the guy who's arms pretty much blew up? There's a video of it on youtube or somewhere I think (don't go looking for it by the way, it's pretty disgusting).
