The official thrift/discount store bragging thread

[Snoogz]



Hahaha, I just sold a lot of 45 ties on the bay that I picked up early in my thrifting career and never wore, so I though I needed some more.

That's awesome, best excuse to get more!!

If anyone is intersted in a brooks bros 85% cotton 15% cashmere shirt size large, hit me up quick

Looks legit to me, although the crotch looks as ready to blow as a junkie in a Waffle House bathroom.

Is that the only tag? Or is there a smoother silver tag as well (or evidence that one was there but ripped off)?

Yeah I was worried about that, it's mostly just indigo loss. But I mean... even if the crotch was completely blown I would have picked them up and spent $10 to have them darned. I doubt I will ever see Dior at a thrift store again.

There is a smooth silver tag on the right rear belt loop, I'll look for more when I get home.

Detail of the jacket fabric

Found this today. Last one I sold went for $85 and didn't have the hood, which is odd, because I'm fairly certain you can still get these in stores for around $100 on sale.

And this.......

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

Buttons like a woman's but I 90% sure it's a man's based on the fit. I've also got some other stuff by him for men that buttons like this. Anybody care to take a guess? Thing s heavy and thick as fuuuuuck!
