Actually, I think it's that there's more money floating around as the economy picks up.

This time a year ago you couldn't give away half the stuff that's flying off the shelves, so sellers just stopped trying.

Lots of people selling Kiton and RL blazers for under $200, Paul Stuart and Oxford suits for under $300, nice shoes.

Looks like I'm gonna be broke this week.

I have kids and I'm tempted to sell a few of my suits to finance more important things...

I have a Paul Smith suit brand new from the London line and a Gucci suit...They still have the tags on...

I would probably spend the money on some bespoke garments straight away anyway...

what "nice" things?

They are mostly in odd sizes and length.

The Cucinelli's are being given away at the Loehmann's, and the Mabitex pants are all over the Daffy's.

My impression is that the quality of the "goods" have gone DOWN significantly ever since the big-time sellers like Edmorel have stopped.

Now all you have are junks that I just have to

Why don't you sell one of your kids, one is more than enough right? Problem solved + new suit.

Mine are not exotic enough for the likes of Angelina or Madonna...

They're God's gift even if they cost an arm and a leg and also a thigh ...

They will repay me later by putting me in a cheap retirement home ,whilst selling my house at hte same time to avoid paying taxes at my death, with other piss stained delusional parents...

One man's junk, is another man's treasure.

Some things are not necessarily sized. I picked up a few great pocket squares and ties recently.

I have found a bunch of stuff recently. Cheap ties and a couple pairs of shoes in my odd 11A size.

$42 for dull Tom Ford pocket squares. $18 for beautiful Talbott pocket squares. Crazy indeed.

i don't know whether to be angry or relieved that there doesn't seem to be much 42s.
