The official thrift/discount store bragging thread

Are these older Versace Jeans Couture shirts worth anything?
I picked up 2 of them and IDK what to do with them.
Think i can get $15 each for them? if not should i harvest the buttons and make something cool?
the buttons have the Medusa head and are metal.
maybe take a spent ar-15 case and set one of the verace buttons on the end and sell on etsy?

You'll get about 35 or so for those with the right pics/title. Versace on fire lately.

That's where I started posting. I thought styleforum was for lames with no style. Only partially true.

I want that green Charvet tie... how to do?

Front row: Unbranded, Taxco sterling silver




I've done tons of research to try to educate myself on vintage cufflinks, with a little luck.  The two in the front row are probably the best finds.  It seems like the Taxco ones are relatively high in demand, and they have the .925 marks on them.  I assume its turquoise rocks on the inside.  I think the warrior heads might be worth something too.  They seem like they definitely could be sterling silver, and probably fall into the category of vintage Mexican jewelry. 

Other than that, I don't know much about these.  If there is anyone out there that knows all about cuff links, then I'd appreciate any additional information.

These are nice...AGC is the maker (good luck figuring out who that is) and they are pre 1979 when the Mexican goverment changed the branding to a letter and number system. The 3 is in an "eagle" mark but hard to tell, and 3 is the city of Taxco. Anything signed sterling in cuff links is on my "buy" list unless its $$. I have several nice sets that I picked up at thrifts, so they are out there to be found.
Need to find "Modernist" cufflinks to score well.

Unless they use old shirts this one is from late 70's to early 80's from what i can muster from the label. Like brand new too!

Alden shoes. They had a PTB look to them but had that gummy sole. Or rather half leather tip and half gummy. They were also a super slim A or C size. Kinda like shoes all college professors wear. I guess I would have gotten them if they had been close to dressy.
Andro, PM me if those Cornelianis ever go to yellow tag. I can roll out to that Marshalls and see if they have something in my size.

Watch it, you! I'll find out where you go to school and make sure your grades go down. Or where you went to school. They can still go down. They can go down for a long long time.

I want that green Charvet tie... how to do?

My tastes must be improving, I thought the same thing about the green Charvet, except I thought "Must resist, probably gone anyway"

Passed in these fugly Versace shoes

But I did find these interesting Massimo Dutti chukkas, 2nd time I have seen this brand.

Massimo Dutti is like Zara (both in terms of quality and price), except less well known here in the US. Those look really cool, though. I'd rock the hell out of those.

for people around here who really like tea(me not being one of them)...they do say the beacon has the best tea. i'd definitely recommend the food if you like grease and heart attacks...it's delicious!

I know a guy who'd kill for this hat.

The quality seems pretty decent and leather is really soft, for $7 I cant go wrong lol. I saw tons of Zara stuff today but they had the prices jacked way up! $50 for a Zara jacket is a joke.

Oh yeah...I almost forgot..I got a bitchin TEAC reel to reel!
