I thought so too, glad I left it. Thank you so much!

So, the Lanvin Boutique stuff is the "good shit" even though it has the old L logo?

Yeah this is the top of Lanvin. The maker of this escapes me, I need to do a little research.

HOT TIP! Total Wine carries Brooklyn Summer and Brooklyn Lager. You have to catch them while they are in stock though. There is a Total Wine in Kennesaw which I don't think is too far from you.

No hate for Brooklyn, although it is not terribly exciting... here is what I enjoyed last night

very hoppy, pretty intense, went well with spicy food

... or you could just go to Tower. And I'm pretty sure Green's has it. Ale Yeah in Decatur definitely has it, as does Hop City.

 

It's not that hard to find. And yes, I feel in love with Brooklyn beers while in school at Syracuse.

Have a current transaction going on with Randy, couldn't ship on time. Good guy as he was understanding.
Picked up a versace belt, brioni, borrelli, and a few zegna shirts. Not available.
A tip for some of you guys in NYC, the city only fruitful if you hit stores once a day.
Try the same frequency with some outer borough spots and you gonna pull in that high end stuff.

The Putthison blogger recommend KOSS headphones a while back, I grabbed two pairs when they were having a 40%
off sale. Best headphones EVER. Can't beat a lifetime warranty.

Canali "Exclusive Collection".  The quality of this shit can't be overstated.  I've handled a Kiton 14 Micron, and this and the next one are pretty much almost as soft as it.  Amazing handfeel. Pick stitching like a motherfucker....all the way from the top of the lapel to the bottom of the jacket, and even on the pants pockets (!!).  Side vented, flat front, tapered pants.  Absolutely perfect modern styling.  Content tags are pretty clean...these can't be more than a few years old.  Pristine.

1st ever W&G (also had to leave behind a 2nd W&G shirt that had a hole and multiple stains)

You're on a roll! Wow!

That W&G shirt is Cotton Bush Poplin. I sold three of these in the past 6 months. One got $200+ and the other two got about $150 each. You might want to go back and get the other one, despite the stains, holes if the price is right. You're looking at $$$

Oh, and here's what you should be looking at getting for those Canali Exclusive Collection suits. spam[1].giflurker[1].gif

hey, i'm not sure if this is the right place for this, but hopefully i can get some advice. a couple of weeks ago, i sold an item on ebay. the buyer claimed it was fake and instead of going through all the hassle of a eBay resolution, i offered him a refund. he sent me a confirmation number for the return and i refunded him. now, however, i just received the item and it wasn't what i sent him. how do i take care of this?

Chalk it up as a life lesson. That's your only recourse.

Why would you refund before receiving the item? Basically your only option is to try asking him nicely to send the right thing, but good luck with that...
