For how much?

50 Euros each. Very nice ties, and had a nice chat with him about ties in general.

One shopping regret was *not* getting the Brunello Cucinelli jacket - 90% cashmere, light grey, peak lapels and at 1/3 of local prices (but still a bit too rich for me at the time), now I find that 5% cashmere BC on SF costs twice as much
