OK, first up is this gorgeous Corneliani CC sport coat. CC is their "trendier" line, but the build quality is still pretty good for the price. I think it's half-canvassed; if not, very nicely fused. I bought it for myself and was pretty bummed when it didn't fit. Zero shoulder padding, center vent, two button vent, very modern stance/lapel placement. 100$ ultra lightweight virgin wool. This is the type of fabric that's made to be worn in the dead of summer. Quarter lined. The waist is very nicely suppressed (I'm too fat for it). Measurements: Shoulder: a touch over 17". Chest: 19.5" Length from bottom of collar: 29.75" Sleeve: 24.25" Retail was $700, I'm asking just $80 shipped in the CONUS. Next up is this nice NWT BB tie. It's an oatmeal-ish color with a very rough silk that feels more like linen. I actually thought it was linen 'till I looked at the label. Retail was $59.50, asking $20 shipped in the CONUS.
EDIT: I've found some stains on the HSM suit, I won't be selling it.
