The official thrift/discount store bragging thread

eBay execs:



Sorry man

. We must laugh so as not to cry.

Ugh....I'll ask for pictures and go from there I guess. To give more info, the guy has about 10 total feedback (all positive, member since 2002). The shoes were 120% not fake. I have a 7 day return policy for grossly misdescribed items. Can this guy really win a Paypal SNAD after having worn the shoes for 2 weeks? It is a used item, I don't think I should be held accountable for warranty issues when there is no appliocable warranty to begin with

I really doubt he can after wearing them fro that long....

But, crazier things have happened on ebay.

I'm still pissed off for Nataku and the "bear sweater incident"

Did anything happen with her principal/superintendent?

I wish I found it at a thrift store but it was consigned :/

I gotta give a big shout out to whomever it was that posted about the thriftbuddy app. I've found a couple new stores I did not know about and found a few epic first finds in the wild. I'm still out exploring--will post pics later.

I think it was Wes. Damn, now I have to really get that iphone.

Had tons of terrible luck; the last two weeks or so have yielded some pretty good stuff. Some highlights (unfortunately, I've run across some financial difficulties, so I can't really make any of this available):
Oxxford Super 120s:

Mainline John Varvatos unstructured navy summer blazer:

Alden for Barney's shell loafers:

Aquascutum trousers:

yessir.

I find that I'm able to score a pair of Aldens per year around here. So, I guess this is this year's find.

Oh, great. Now I feel compelled to Google...I'll probably end up on some government list.

I didn't feel it was anything super vulgar....I would love to have it on a t-shirt.

Anyone familiar with Lucchese cowboy boots? Upon doing some research they seem like a decent brand, but anyone here have any thoughts before I shell out the money at GW?

They are a good brand. Use your better judgement on quality and convenient size. Obviously exotic leathers do better. Check the soles for wooden pegs along the arch. If there are none, chances are they have been resoled, not necessarily a bad thing but not as desireable. The more wooden pegs the higher the quality IIRC.
