Ah the Chairman & Yip, it was always my first date restaraunt when I wanted to impress (and it always did). Took my wife there for our second date actually, wore double monks and she still married me!
Am thinking it was more the Duck Wraps than the double monks CW....!!!! Still the Chairman a truly great CBR institution.

I can take some photos of mine tomorrow if you're curious guys.
Yes please, was your shipping the said price below
Pics would be good, although after seeing the ridiculous shipping cost of $38 I might have to let the wallet go for now.

The real question is, how much is it worth to you? If you'd actually pay $128 for a wallet like this then suck it up and buy it. If not, forget it. Forget about the shipping cost in relation to the wallet, etc.

What would you get for $128 elsewhere?

+1.

When shopping overseas, it really only makes sense to look at the total price, not the nett price of the goods plus shipping. Then, the questions becomes, can I get a similar wallet here in Oz and, if so, how much will it cost?

If, for example, such a wallet would cost you $200, and the overseas wallet costs $128, then clearly the overseas wallet is a better deal, regardless of the shipping costs.

It's also worth noting that postage costs have risen markedly over the past few years and that it's not particularly reasonable to expect small businesses, like the above wallet-maker, to swallow shipping costs just because you only want to pay $20 instead of $28 in shipping.

This is my current wallet. It's not for everyone, but I love it.

wow that has blown my mind - i dont think the GF will appreciate me buying a new wallet when she only got me one.

on my hit list - thanks :)

on the topic of shipping - GoRuck (the bag company) are charging $70US for shipping of bags. it was hard enough to connivence me to pay $250 for a packback let alone 70 for ship.

this upsets me.


I was suited up after work, not wearing denim/chino's etc. If I want to go no socks, and I do on occasion (sorry FXH) i'll wear my Tod's usually.

Anyway, X-post of todays fit
