Okay, too much to photograph and not a thrift score but met up with someone who gave me the following to sell on Ebay.

27 ties - Versace, Hermes, Charvet, Stefano Ricci, Zegna, etc.
Pocket squares - Hermes,
Shirts - RLPL, Zilli, Zegna, Versace, Brioni, etc.
about 30 suits - Oxxford, Versace, Canali, Zegna, Paul Smith
shoes - Prada, Gucci, Hermes, etc.
Belts - Gucci

shirts are mainly 17.5/44
Suits mainly 46L
shoes 12/13D

I'm thankful as this is my only source of income! =)

Just a suggestion, come up with prices you happy selling them for and make a Megathread here with something along the lines of "buy before ebay, no price drops, no offers, etc etc" so you dont get 20 PM's with people offering you 1/2 what you can sell it on ebay as it looks like your trying to max out profit due to income (which I think is called capitalism but a lot of people ***** and moan about on the forum).

Hopefully you'll get a few sales before going to ebay and save ebay/paypal fees along with making a few guys on the forum happy. Plus dealing here is SO much nicer then ebay do to the stupid people that a) dont know there size, b) ***** about a single thread pull on the sleeve lining of a jacket and c) never actually pay after winning an auction

Makes sense, I am a capitalist but also part of the team.

Fortunately he said they were 44-46 L. Think entire business tycoon x Fashionishta's wardrobe. That's all I'll say. I don't want to spoil the epicness of his score.

I'm all for making a dollar but still passing on things below eBay prices.

30 suits?

they sell for $25-35? at goodwill usually depending on brand.......i don't have enough money in my bank account to even pick those up!

im glad to say that for once, im glad i didn't find that score, or i'd have a lot of bigger and taller guys mad at me!

Thrift fit... Wanted more color today and this cool shirt just came from CT (http://www.ctshirts.com/windsor for a great shirt + tie deal, FYI). Maybe a little fashion-forward for the office, but whatever

Sportcoat: Vestimenta unstructured linen from eBay
Shirt: CT
Tie: Thrifted (nothing special)
Pants: Brooks Brothers Madison from hmmurdock
Shoes: AE Arlington, thrifted
PS: Nordstrom Rack

After I left I wished I'd gone with navy pants, but oh well..

951socal · May 1, 2012

^tie and SC are awesome. there was a discount code for CT shirts in the back of esquire mag, 3 for $100 deal or something

vexco · May 1, 2012

Went to my usual spot today and it was closed(WTF?) so I headed to a spot a little further out. Everything available.

Is this a womens jacket? It seems a bit big for a woman...NWT Pendleton SC.

Norman Hilton SC...this thing is bad-ass. 40L 3-roll-2, single-vent and MOP buttons.

Gitman Bros - 16.5/33

and a Charvet tie
