Over $500 I think.  Probably melt value.

Found a Brioni tie (my first Brioni in the wild) and a pair of J&M Crown Aristocraft longwings.  Will be a restore project after I get a shipment of Saphir in next week.

Since these are still out of flipping range, and they are not my size, behold the glory of Marshalls. Both were on final markdown for $657.

If anyone in CT is interested in some Zegna and Armani pants around size 36 hit me up for location

In the spirit of the bragging thread, I should mention that I managed to win on a month when the prize was $500 instead of the usual $50!

So what's the moral obligation here (a styleforum gentleman's bet)? Only items you thrifted yourself or are we doing thrift trades as well?

Nice job Hans...I am going to steal that idea.

Love that, nice job!

Won these on Ebay as a lot (grenadines I think - not labeled as such by the seller, N/A):

From those industrious brothers!

Finally found my first Ralph Lauren Black Label anything - In staple-ish colors and they all fit so N/A:

Interesting Polo shacket - throat latch, nice buttons, two pockets + hand warmers, elastic waistband:

I don't often buy Mezlans, but when I do, they're Brown Suede Double Monks (10D - Available):

And two Carroll & Co. Suits:

Recent POW Flannel (on its way to Spoo as we speak):

And this vintage beaut - Tweed Three Piece Suit! This thing is rad: ticket pocket, double vents, horn buttons, handiwork everywhere:

Wish it fit, it's about a 38s.

That's a great idea!  Must have a spacious closet to be able to do that.  Do you worry about exposing your hats to potential vermin?  It's something I'm paranoid about.
