just got two new carlo franco ties, from ebay - seriously nice ties. great color, details, feel. I am very happy with them. good prices, too, since they are being cleared out to make room for next years collection.

I'm boycotting CF's stuff because of their failure to fulfill my shirts order.

Seriously, does anyone have a sense of what's been going on with Chuck and Jill lately? Seems like there's been no word on the next generation of shirts, the planned reveresible pocket square project seems to have dropped into a black hole, and clicking on the "Live Help available now" image at the website inevitably yields a message indicating "no operators are available".

the second one is a cashmere/silk 60/40 in charcoal gray with brilliant red dots.

I have actually had my eye on them for a year, and was waiting for my birthday (coming up) to get them. I was able to get them for $95 each.

I just completed an off-ebay Sartorial Solutions transaction. Chuck has been busy, to say the least. Good things come to those who wait

Heck, I'm still waiting for one of two from my last order of shirts. My brother's 2005 christmas present is a little "late" to say the least. Guess it's about time for my once a month email to Chuck. But oh the one I've received, that's mine and wowsas!

thanks - I am trying to go to a smaller number of higher quality ties, all in gray and dark blue. These fit in exactly with what I was looking for.

in the next month of so I want to get a couple of samhober dark blue ties made.
