Well, it was bound to happen, I think we may have finally broke the record of the most amount of ties anyone has sent in one batch.

I didnt count but it was definitely north of 350. Yowza!

Wow. Ties have quickly been shed from the daily workplace attire. Have you seen a reduction of the overall selling prices ties are bringing in?

Long time no see! Hope you're good.

The past two weeks we've seen a small drop, but at the same time, it was not filled with mega premium brands for exactly that reason. However three weeks ago (and a bunch going live) we've still been moving standard Zegna's and Brionis very well (some north of $100), though that depends largely on the pattern.

The most wanted ones, absolutely no change.

Hey thanks. Yes, haven't bid in a while. Kind of hit a plateau at least for now :decisions: though I have still been scanning the auctions.

Good to hear the upper echelon ties are still going strong. It's coming down to us conservative business dress geeks to keep it flowin...

Quality ties are always my favorite thing to thrift because:
cheap
easy to determine quality
easy to determine condition
small and cheap to ship
Spoo sells the **** out of ties!!!

Just took delivery of my latest Luxeswap/NMWA collab.

Vass budapesters are beautiful. Unfortunately the Aurlands at 43 were not a good fit for me. Going to return for a 44 and give it one shot as they are real nice. For comparison I wear a 10b/d in Alden loafers and a 44 in Vas’s on the New Peter last. Happy to answer any questions I can.

We shall see on timing. I definitely have some stuff but we are trying to limit our interactions during this time. One of my family members is high risk. If not now then soon for sure, maybe by the end of the summer for the next NMWA collab. But excited to see what everyone sends.

Are unlabeled CM jackets worth the trouble for you? I have a white linen jacket that is too small in the chest, but I removed most of the lining and, with it, any tailor's marks.
