Forget the Ferrari hahah. How has no one asked how much @SpooPoker wants for that alligator wallet?

I also should have clarified this point - especially to @LA Guy and @emptym - by no means will this thread be used to promote any products I have, I won't put links up to anything for sale here, just the finalized progress along the way. Those promotions will be reserved to the LuxeSwap thread. Its merely intended to benchmark the steps on the journey, with a mostly sartorial edge.

That said, Id like to start my trip off right, with a healthy start on that wallet :) It'll be going up to auction this coming week.

Heck you would have come out ahead to invest that $2 in the lottery, or maybe you did??

A Mega Millions lottery jackpot ticket worth $425 million was sold on Long Island, according to lottery officials.

The New Year’s Day jackpot will be awarded to a lucky lotto player who purchased a ticket at the Brookville Auto Service Shop in Glen Head, according to New York Lotto.

A single ticket purchased in the city suburb matched all six numbers — 34, 44, 57, 62 and 70, plus the gold Mega Ball 14.

The jackpot is estimated to be worth $425 million ($254.6 million cash) — the eighth-largest in the history of the game.

Damn Spoo, that is some next level hype. I have a ton of wallets, love mine, and am still going to bid, just so that I can say that I did.

For any strangers that find this thread after winning a bid on one of your auctions - do they get any special recognition on your eventual Ferrari purchase or maybe special privileges related to the car?

If the reviews were accurate, I wouldn't. It was Ferraris first attempt at an AWD system and apparently it's not good.

oh well, though I suppose if you want reliable car, stick with Porsche...

does Cali actually have usable backseat? I suppose it's all relative given we're talking about small children
