The official thrift/discount store bragging thread - Part II (May 2015 - Sept. 2018)

[barrelntrigger]



The tale of the Loro Piana leather continues... I popped up to the same shop again this morning, and inevitably someone had parted with the $85 needed for the jacket in the 30 minutes between when I left last night and when they closed (I got in right at opening.)

Spoiler

Because the thrift gods are generous, I copped a folding/rolling garment bag in fantastic condition from Briggs & Riley and a Bailey 'Premier Collection' made in Italy fur felt fedora for less money than the jacket cost.

Ain't mad.

I bet it was a lurker who koped it after reading your post.

Dear jompso,

To start off I will say this. I do appreciate the message and it wasn't ignored. There is a good explanation for this. I'm a very busy person and sometimes when I don't have time for everything my wife helps me get things done. She made this listing thinking it may have been or was maybe trying to say it was a ford style jacket. The listing does clearly state it is zegna wich is true. There is one key word maybe she could have used like "style" or something similar. I am not trying to deliberately cheat people it was just a mistake we are human and we all make mistakes. I will say this to you. Make better use of your time man than stalking then openly making threats against me. Yes you are the ultimate thrifter and we all bow in your grace is that what you want to hear from me and we're all stupid and must ask everything of you. I've herd your I thrifted x amount of kiton and brioni so f u guys. Well guess what I was thrifting kiton before you even thought of it. You exaggerated that a little to far I think. You going to list your $900 tom ford jeans as everyone who buys tom ford knows thats bullshit. Ow did i call you out on those um ya or should i say i was just trying to help you out and not make an ass out of yourself but you sure do know your **** huh.Now think about what this hard.I want you to think about how much more pressure you would feel if you had to not only do a six figure 9-5 everyday wich is extremely a demanding task on its own then throw in a wife a home and a one year old daughter into the mix plus being a thrifter Things get crazy at times. So to achieve this my glorious wife wich also works 50 hour weeks at very demanding job at a hospital helps me out when she can because she's awsome and she gets to work at home. It's called being a family and not for one second would I ever sacrifice a bunch of used **** over that. So to go on the attack like that and type what was said read it over and think how you would feel. You need help and you have the typical socal attitude of me first I'm better fu. Life's to short for that don't sweat the small things man its a waist of time.Your obviously good at what you do and keep on trucking and do your own thing and let others do theres. Now think I've pushed 1800 items this year and while juggling all that how would you measure up to that task its not as easy as you think. I can't put all my cards in on this game. I have to have a career. The way goodwill and others picking things these days it could possibly completely dry up. Then in the end we have two pensions and two 401k accounts and I have stock out my ears from my company and I won't look back.
