It could explain everything.

I don't know how people take high end designer prices seriously when sales are often over 75% off... I guess only the super rich buy this stuff at full price...


I buy regularly at retail, or with a very small discount, and I would not consider myself wealthy.

Often the stuff that you really want is gone by sale time. I typically buy a bunch of stuff that I really want at the beginning of each season. About half of that stuff is gone by the time sale time rolls around. Some stuff, especially accessories, can only be found in one or two places, are are bought in sticks. So, for example, I bought a Dries van Noten belt this season at full price. I have been to several stockists, and only one of them, on of my favorite stores, carried it, and they only had one in my very common size. So I picked it up. Other things, like jeans in evergreen cuts and washes, also hardly ever go on sale. Some basics do go on sale, but those are typically not prohibitively expensive.

The stuff that I got at retail goes on sale - I am glad that I got to enjoy it for that much longer.

I'm yet to figure out how much snow they actually got, I have a feeling we got more this week and none gives a ****.


Not that much, but we don't need much for the infrastructure to fall apart - it's a quintessential British thing. Having said that it's the rain and winds in the west that are genuinely bad news - collapsed houses etc.

noob, I still think you should buy the blazer, and I'm not just saying that because I want your money. I mean, I do, but the handful of times I've worn the blazer, it's been in a nonchalant manner and no one has been all OMG BLAZER WHO DIED?! And these have been venues where the Bud Light flows like Bud Light and people listen to Pitbull without a hint of irony and people assume if you're wearing a blazer, it's because you just saw a stiff in a coffin.

It's pretty funny, that just a little snow, can stop a whole country and in Scandinavia 500-1000km away on the same latitude, no one cares about the same amount of snow.

Yes I heard something about floods and landslides.


So a couple of b&s or should i say bs experiences to share.

One guy wanted something, pms me and doesn't follow my payment instruction so I refund him so he can send the proper amount and he never sends it or pms back even though I know he's read my pms. I even said "hey motherfucker I know you've read my pms *****". Ok I didn't quite articulate it that way but you get the gist.

Another character wanted my brand new unworn apcs which I had listed the waist size for. He asks if I can measure the inseam, no problem and he says perfect. Then he goes ok before I send the money can you measure the knee (wtf?) and the hem (understandable) but at this point you pretty much know what to expect. He also says he'll have the money in a day or two (ok) so a couple days goes by and he doesn't send the money as he stated. I don't pm him back to see if he'll keep his word (this point i'm doubtful) and he's waiting for these crucial measurements so I pm him after several days "hey do you still want these, if so I can measure" and his response was the measurements won't hurt. At this point I'm like wtf kind of response is that and my hunch that he was wasting my time for specs was accurate as after I sent them, no response. I follow up and he finally responds with oh too big. Right.

I know, cool story bros.


Love people like that, you should be glad you don't work in sales, as that is pretty much what I go through everyday. :brick:

Anybody got a clue of the quality of Pull&Bear? I know it won't be anything special, but compared to other companies of similar price, such as H&M, Zara, Topman, etc? Worth to try out some stuff? Going to Lisbon in a week, and they have stores there. Looking at their website they have some cool-looking casual blazers for cheap prices.
