IIRC, it was $14.99, still in the box looking unworn. Inscription on back to an employee of Standard Oil of California on his 30th anniversary. May 1974.

his facebook http://www.facebook.com/phromyaratr
if you scroll down youll see in a pic hes trying to sell a supreme hat with his forum name wrongwroks on a thai forum. It should be an open and shut case of bank/credit card fraud. Anyone have a direct contact to law enforcement that could arrest this prick
Quote: +1 With all the guys in the LA area, no one has a friend/relative/friend of a friend that is a law enforcement agent to at least take a look into this? Make a call and find out whats going on? I don't mean to harp on this issue, but it really really really bothers me.

EDIT - The public internet is a BIG place.... if someone wants to find you they will, usually it takes 30 seconds on google.

My father was telling me today he has a gold Hamilton my grandparents gave him for high school graduation in the 50's. I told him to dig it out and if he doesn't want to wear it, I will. I prefer the smaller vintage watches for wearing with suits anyway. My brother gave me a new Baume et Mercier watch for my birthday last summer and it feels like I am wearing a dinner plate on my wrist.

you are so full of ****. this might be the biggest lie i have ever read on the internet. you are either the stupidest person on the face of the planet, or you think we are all drooling morons. paypal won't let you send money if it makes your account go negative, you have to fund it, dumbass. that doesn't even make sense. then to top it off, the "thief" happens to buy a suit in YOUR size, have it shipped to YOUR PO box, and you realize the money is missing THE EXACT SAME DAY THE SUIT GETS DELIVERED

ARE YOU ******* KIDDING ME????

oh my god. the audacity. most people, they are crooks, and they steal from you then slink off. yet you are so brazen you actually come back here and act like you are the victim. you are a pathetic excuse for a human being. i hope eddievdr sells me the debt so i can fly to where ever you are and knee cap you personally.


Seriously +1

I hope you get hit by a ******* truck in that stolen suit you POS. I'd recommend you send it back or the next time some of these guys are in LA you better watch it... Just wait for this stuff to start popping up in your personal life. The Internet is a big place

A cheap flight to LA can't cost more than a few hundred bucks.

Quick interjection here - while Im pissed off that EV got scammed too, and I dont blame him for seeking every bit of information to get a scammer nailed and/or his money and product back, its not worth it to stoop to lower levels with threats of violence and other stuff in that tone... while I agree with you and am pissed too, lets remember that the style in styleforum is keeping the high road. Stay classy yall. :)

Oh yeah, I know there is a sleeve issue as well ala too short. Reason for the fit is my tailor said she can only let the arms out 1" - do you think 1" will do it?

Probably. It would look better than what it is currently. And stop saying **** about yourself! You're now.... super cuddly!

Am I allowed to do my first ever thrift fit if I don't have a full length mirror?










My best fitting thrifted jacket. No alterations whatsoever, I'm pretty happy with it!

Jacket: Norman Hilton Super 90's Merino Lambs Wool (Thrifted)
Tie: Balenciaga (thrifted)
Shirt: Brooks Brothers Christmas sale
Belt: PRL (Marshall's clearance)
Pants: Canali flannel slim fit but with a 5 pocket stance... weird. I added big FU cuffs to them too so they are statement pants. (The Rack clearance)
Shoes not pictured: Allen Edmonds Fifth Street (retail

That jacket looks great on you! Looks like it could be taken in a little bit at the waist. The tie, meh. Overall, very nice! I don't think you need a full length mirror. You got everything pictured! Would love some information on that watch too! It's very a classy dress watch that I've never heard of.... Looks like Patek Philippe.

Where is the police report sunshine?

If someone stole 2.5k from me I would be all over this.


Who would this police report be filed with? Does your local police dept have a "Unfairly Filed PayPal Disputes" division? Mine sure doesn't. Or do you think EV should call the Chino Hills police, 3,000 miles away, and see if they have a division for handling these types of cases?
