The official thrift/discount store bragging thread

[rose04]

Sorry, posted twice.

Versace Jeans Couture x2 - both in TINY sizes, like 26 and 28. If anyone here is actually that small, they're available My initial thought was that they might be real, because they were found with (and in similar size to) the Alexandre and Nutter and D&G and a few other things we found and didn't pick up, there was clearly a tiny guy who donated a good bit of stuff.
More pics... they probably aren't worth much but I couldn't resist picking them up just to use this:

Nice - real, probably 1992-1993. Wont get you a load on the bay, maybe 30 each?

picked up a box of 24 of these at an estate sale for a buck. may not be worth flipping unless there's some freaky gucci fiend out there.  i may either have to take up smoking or bust out the edible soy mood candles more often to make use of these.... yeeaa these are going to collect some dust.

ARE THOSE ******* GUCCI MATCHES? PM SENT

I came across these at the Goodwill on Beverly, just east of Fairfax if anyone in Los Angeles is interested in grabbing them:
Vintage (?) Abercrombie & Fitch official Navy Overcoat. $40. The A&F tag looks 80s? Sorry, didn't see a size, but it may as well have been new. I left it on the suit rack, up against the wall, next to the changing room. See last photo.

This is insanely cool.

I have seen that one by Dior in the past. Cant say for sure, but tag looks authentic.

Even though the last line in the authenticity tag is missing the first "A"?

Authenticity Check Please. Dior Homme Shirt.......something just seems and feels off to me, fabric isn't that great. Only tags are the Dior tag and the tag pictured (front and back of that tag is shown).

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

FAKE FAKE FAKE
everything about that is wrong one of the worst fakes ive ever seen from dior (what spoo is to versace, I am to dior homme, actually on 2nd thought no chance but I do know the brand pretty well and I'm friendly with hedi slimane the former designer)

lol well yes,its a thrift bragging thread lol

Nice, you got a good deal! Were those at a thrift store?

Damn this was the day of "looks like pretty excellent quality but I've never heard of this brand before" which kinda validates PutThisOn's thing about "recognizing quality." My lunch time thrift break...picked up some decent stuff (Aquascutum tie) but also this Bowring Arundel bespoke shirt. Looked really close to my size & awesome...and the dude for whom it was made had arms 2" longer than mine (I'm a 15-32). I could have it altered...

...and there was a 2nd Bowring Arundel shirt there, too, but dude had it monogrammed JCR so I had to pass. Also saw a Lanvin blazer (metal buttons), probably about a 46, all hand stitched around pockets, lapel, all around! But it was this heinous beige camel-silk that screamed "late '50s space age polyester rec room curtains," and I just can't picture any of youse wanting it. If there's interest, I can go back and measure. Damn thing would cost you less than postage would. Plus postage.

Oops, that will teach me to read properly

But the actual Dior tag looks real man! How can you tell? That is downright scary I thought it was real.

Eddievedr is one of my favourite user names here. Think I will play '10' while I browse through the threads here.

thanx, but like youngamerican said its very rare to find dior homme in thrift stores, the label is silver but the stitching is the giveaway, real shirts are stiched neatly from 4 corners
plus the inside tag is always silver with a refrence number,also they never produced a shirt with all bees, i see they really tried to capitalize on that logo aspect, i remember the golden days when i got dior denim for 65 a pop i made a killing on those!
anyway all dior homme post hedi slimane is pure shite, kva really wet the bed on dior homme

[Everett464]

I have had the chance, and I couldn't agree more. Really good stuff, but still doesn't make the dirty bird crap.
