The official thrift/discount store bragging thread

[Bartlebooth]



Bartlebooth- If this one would fit you PM me I'll get rid of it for what I paid.

You best believe that if it fit me, I would've already PMed you. But I'm a 38. Alas...

I know we're supposed to be officially anti-flipping or somesuch, and of of course you should offer it to some lucky 40R from here, first, so you didn't hear this from me, but authentic Barracudas in good condition seem to go for a pretty penny on theBay, just FYI.

....It's no Marinella from Silvio Berlusconi, but I found this tie from the former prime minister of South Korea/current ambassador to the US:

Spoo's gonna want that.

That chair is fantastic...there's a great one in a mercatino here in venice, has big lions for the arm rests and is a proper throne! Don't know where I'd put it hough...

Duh, in my house.

Spoo's gonna want that.

Im more of a steak guy, not so much Duck.

WARNING!!!! These are NOT high end items, BUT I am very very happy to have thrifted them, hence bragging

as they actually FIT me (and I've been looking for a similar tie for weeks now). WOOHOO

Steven Alan Extra Small!


J Crew Blue Small and Green Extra Small​

Tie made by Nautica....but I love the pattern and hey, cant be $2!

 

[TheWGP]

I was under the impression that Steven Alan was brag-worthy, was I misinformed? I was happy to find the one item from them I've ever found (and since traded!) I actually really like that pattern, it's very old-school. There's OLD shirts from BB that looked like that, for example. Great summer wear IMO.

My only finds this weekend were these not-very-brag-worthy items that I was nonetheless pleased to see in great condition, which is something of a rarity for me. Both available on the slim chance a lurking Trad might be interested.

My biggest pass was actually a pretty cool "Notre Dame Athletic Department" labeled cotton sweater with knit-in ND logos. Since I went to ND I would totally rock that ****... but it was a size L Thought about throwing it on the bay but it seemed risky and random just for me to get a nostalgic kick out of it...

Pendleton wool sweater L
Arancraft Irish Wool cableknit sweater XXL might fit XL.

Like everyone keeps saying, keep going back to that store and looking for the pants. Sometimes they put the jacket out before the pants. What label is the Isaia? Enrico, Gianluca or the regular Isaia Napoli line? Either way, Nice find!

Oops, I lied. It's the Napoli line, not sure how old that makes it (can anyone help estimate age?).OMG I want a suit like this

A few teaser pics. Weird, no laps on the pockets??

 

[grendel]

So the big find of the day... A Canali Proposta sportcoat... New with tags! Size 52R / 42R

So I think this is gonna be available... Not sure I can rock the 3 button, and it's a bit wide in the shoulders on me.

 

[grendel]

For Will, the BB trad tennis sweater pic as promised

 

[Typhoid Jones]

^^^ Cool jacket! Vintage BB too?

 

[noob in 89]



Great jacket. It looks as though your name is Brad and you're about to go hassle Michael J. Fox about something, or maybe challenge John Cusack to a downhill ski race...

Ok,after finding a pair of Bruno Maglis in my closet perfectly preserved, I realized I need to get some trades off before I buy new things. With that said, warning, massive influx of the stuff I've thrifted over the past two days (except for some of the ties, the Maglis, PS and PRL lumberjack). Also not pictured, a Seiko gotta see if it can be repaired but if so I'll get pics up ASAP.

Ready for the deluge?? I'm willing to make everything available for: some damn pants (nice chinos, khakis, slacks whatever in 29-30), some damn hats (those of you who know me know I feel the golf/driver caps, already PMing the ugly above with those), AN RLPL, Kiton, or equivalent suit (38r/s or 36 possibly)At this point I'm resigned to the fact I'll never find one in my size until I buy one new, and damnit I've been thrifting too long to not have one of these. Finally, some damn shoes.

I am more than willing to give multiple items for one item, people that know me up here know I'll go extra lengths for things I want. Only thing Im likely dead set against giving away is the Southwick unless I can get another business appropriate suit. PM me for measurements, was not going to measure everything last night. Also if you'd like any other pics, I've luckily got my old roommates d80 at the moment.

Oh, and don't mind my heater, we tried painting that a while ago and you can see that didn't work out to well with the heat lmao.
