The official thrift/discount store bragging thread

Prince is probably the 2nd best show i've been to. 1) george clinton 2) prince 3) slayer./simon posford

I'd rock some loud pants w/ normal constraints on everything else. PS I remember seeing lavender "gator" shoes when I saw prince, also blue shoes w/ red pants lol

George Clinton is way up there for me, as well. The first show I saw, that is, back in the mid 90s. Blew me so totally away I went to two others, each more disappointing than the last, and he charged top dollar all the way. Not sure if he's touring anymore, but he shouldn't be, an object lesson on how not to do drugs. Daughter of a good friend of mine was managing a club where he appeared five years back or so. Spent a considerable amount of time smoking crank and crack in a back room and could barely be bothered to go onstage. Very sad. But the absolute bomb back in the day.

Registered is tracked at every step of the way. That with a return reciept is what law firms use with sensitive stuff where they want to have absolute proof something was received. If you're sending something valuable or sensitive, that's the way to go.
Registered mail with return receipt is probably the best option for your situation. That receipt with the address and a signature on it would be enough in court, and if they refuse to sign, the post office will not deliver.

And at the end of the day, after it is tracked and signed for and videotaped right down to the package being opened, the buyer files a complaint, eBay sides with him and you lose.

Big shout out to HansderHund, Tweets and eazye for packages that arrived over the past week.

All are stand up guys who've helped me almost finish off my Want List. Time to start a new one (vol. 2) I guess.

I purchased a pair of J&M boat shoes that are half a size too big... Fits me right but foot slips when I walk. Any heel insert would suffice? Or is there a recommended insert for this sort of thing. Any input would be recommended.

Super slow day today, stopped in by one of my usual spots only to see the parking lot filled. Stepped inside, saw there was a sale going on, stepped right the **** back outside. So, all I grabbed today is a bunch of LP's, Stylistics, Dramatics and two by Johnny Cash including Live at Folsom Prison. Oh yea, I think someone was looking for an Oxxford hanger about 2,000 pages back.

Pretty sure it was TheWGP who was looking for hangers to match his suits, Oxxford included. Very fair trader and cool l dude all around.

Just got back from a 6 day vacation to NYC and Philly to see 545 unread posts here, looks like I have some catching up at work tomorrow. In the meantime, I managed to make one short thrifting stop in each city and the only good find was this:

Turnbull & Asser Cashmere Tie

Look forward to wearing it. Also picked up a slim fit BB houndstooth shirt and I think that was about it.
