UPDATE!: Okay, here's the deal -- the ridiculous monolith that was the Bergdorf Goodwill Megasale was getting a bit too ridiculous and monolithic, so with j's permission (encouragement, even!), I have divided the sale up into three components. I will bump the threads when new items are added. This should significantly ease your browsing (and mine -- it was taking me forever to even get the thing to load so that I could edit the post to indicate sales, add items, so on). Many thanks to j and to StyleForum in general for allowing this. Please note that I have set up a GrandCentral number that will ring my cell phone -- please call this if you have any questions that you would like answered quickly or you feel like berating me for any reason. I live in the Eastern time zone of the US and I barely sleep, so feel free to call me at 3 in the morning if you really need to know the width of a shoe or something, I totally don't care. For those who aren't familiar, GrandCentral provides alternate phone #s so you can publicly provide a number without giving out your permanent phone number. Make sense? Anyway, for reference, three ways to get in touch and ask me to measure something, describe something, photograph something, whatever: Call Bergdorf Goodwill (I answer to Jake): 740.661.4262 AIM: gilscottheroin PM: You already know how to do this. Paypal: [email protected] (feel free to donate tens of thousands of dollars so I can go to college and stop being useless) TIES I have loosely organized the ties for sale, shot them in groups, and attempted detail shots. My hands are not the steadiest things in the world (lol stress alleviate it with your dollars), so please forgive the flash giving some of these lovely cravates a Jones New Yorkian sheen -- I assure you it is illusory. All prices include shipping within the US (and likely overseas, unless you're trying to get me to ship these things to Lagos or something). Group A:
CIMG1671.jpg
L-R: Red/green Ben Silver $25, Blue/red/yellow/white no name $10, Lt. blue/orange/yellow/navy Tino Cosma $20, Navy/red/white Brooks Brothers $12 SOLD, Tan/red/navy Aquascutum $15, Gold/red/navy Woodhouse Lynch (I think this is Columbus-local -- it's a nice tie, nice heft, but essentially no-name to most of you) $8, Classic Red/Navy Lands End $10 SOLD (Connemara has requested that I note that he made the first purchase, despite his absence. He offered no further comment.) Brown/yellow/white Church's $20 SOLD.

Group B:
CIMG1675.jpg
L-R: BCBG (heeey...) $5, Heavy navy Joseph Abboud $12 SOLD, White/blue/yellow Tino Cosma $40 (this is from my own closet, and it's one of my favorite ties, and the fact that I need to sell it is a testament to my own failure as a man) SOLD, Pink/blue/yellow Luigi Borrelli (very small spot, indicated in heavily-zoomed detail photo below) $35, Blue/orange/black no-name $8, Green/purple Hugo Boss (it's actually really nice) $20, Navy/yellow MERONA, KING OF ALL NECKTIES. I have four of these, actually. $5 apiece. Surprisingly very nice. Red/black/white Brooks Bros. tie $15 SOLD. Oh, and that golden tiny tie is a Brooks Brothers children's tie. The first person to cop some merch from me who mentions having a male son in need of baller attire gets it. Or you can just give me $5 for it, if you don't have any use for ties of your own and simply need to clothe your small person.

I'm quite sure that I will -- the volume of stuff that I have is daunting.

Bergdorf,

I bought a pair of pants off you on July 2nd, they were paid for that day on Paypal. You said you made an error in shipping when I asked a couple weeks later where they were. You said you would be shipping the next day. No sign of anything. I have sent you many messages with no reply. I want to know what is going on. I see there is another member here who still has not received his purchases. This is over 2 months now, and I am a patient guy, but this is too much. Please send me a PM so we can resolve this situation.

I'm in the same boat. Paid for some ties in July and still no sign of them. Bergdorf finally responded to a PM two weeks ago and said he mailed them, but still nothing.

I'm in the same boat, too, as it's been about ten weeks now and I haven't received anything. I sent a PM a little while ago but haven't yet received a response.

However, I do know that BG has been busy with moving apartments and other things, so hopefully all will be sorted and we'll get our stuff in a little while.

I am not in this boat, but I'll join in on this class-action unsatisfied customer thread in hopes of getting BG to send me some stuff out of panicked confusion.

That baby tie is so creepy and inappropriate that I want it just to make other people uncomfortable. That tie is totally Amber Alert.

Clearly there is an issue here. Is there a way we can get him to respond to us? My last PM was on the 28th of August, I see that he logged in on the 29th, so he must have got it. Has not been online since. I'm wondering how many other people from his mega-sale have been duped.

Where it tells you to phone him at the top of this thread -- have you tried?

(Not taking any sides, just pointing out that the number's there.)
