Nordstrom Rack? Marshall's? We need moar bait than that, my man!
Yesterday I picked up three suits, one smoking, one tailcoat, four pair of chinos and a black leather belt. I payed $928 for the whole shebang, when the original retail price was $4430. As a student on a very restrained economy I am extremely pleased!

You just a dropped nearly a grand on completely superfluous items like a smoking jacket.
We must have different ideas of what "restrained economy" means.

Yeah... and his school days must be much different from mine. Actually, who the hell has a tailcoat, no matter what age?

Got by the drug sniffing K-9 at checkout ok! But when the cashier chimed out "DUDE, awesome band" the dog did look over.

Some more recent/not-so-recent finds. All available.

Vintage Gordon of Philadelphia Seersucker Suit. No wear on this. Flat front pants. Awesome suit that I kopped for myself. But I've had it a year and I haven't thought to worn it once, so I hope it can find itys way to someone who will use it. Measures out to about a 40R.

Gitman Bros madras shirt. Awesome colors. Tagged as a L.

Hickey Freeman linen blend windowpane sportscoat. Tagged 46R. Front pockets still basted shut, this is possibly unworn. From the LTD line.

Polo 100% linen camp shirt. Cool shirt, tons of pockets and buttons. Tagged XL

last but not least, Florsheim Imperial buckle ankle boots. Stellar condition, very little signs of wear. Original soles. Tagged 8.5D. I dearly wish these fit.

This thread is so full of win and fail. Fail because being in a smaller market equates to jack and *********** thrift stores here.

I never have anything good to post because I can't find shizz. singles and doubles (but as grendel says, "My paypal account likes it" (or something like that).

Yeah, Hickey Freeman and Brooks Brothers aren't Isaia or Brioni, but they add up. Being in HF's hometown I find enough to let me fill up my play-money coffers.
