you mean a veterinarian?


not sure how much you paid for shipping but those prices are ok for used ferragamo ties. those are nice ties and seem to be in great condition, assuming you are getting what is in the pictures.

but ferragamo is not really known for ties. those would be great prices for used brioni or other better made ties.

...ferragamo is not really known for ties
Actually Ferrragamo is quite known for their motif ties, as above, alongside those from Hermes. Silks are usually pretty nice, linings are light or midweight. Quality is usually middle of the road overall.

Fair price for what you paid after shipping. Although the seller claims that the ties are authentic, I would still be suspicious given the volume of his Hermes/Ferragamo sales and SE Asian origin.

Yeah I guess I won't know authenticity until I receive, but I am not concerned about that, I mean as long as it is a nice soft silk with a thin hermes-esque liner, I will be happy. I just liked the whimsical patterns, and that was more my concern, whether or not the patterns were overly obnoxious. I am in my early twenties and I don't like to be too serious yet, although maybe I should be.

Hmm, well-known Italian name offered by a seller from the sunny and humid South-East Asia

I like the sports one. Good choice.

And I love this line from the seller's Website:

"Even though I was relocated from the US to Thailand, I still have a large collection of ties."

Kind of makes me worry about what they take away from you if you visit Thailand.

I'm not sure: did your grandpa tell you to make this kind of answers?
