So i heard the story of how the double breasted came to be. Do you suppose that some customers prefer the buttons on the left? Left handed? Not a wimmenz thing?

Hmmmm.

Just because it's been awhile. I want thumb comments back.

I have a different brag of sorts. My dad is a 21 year veteran of the Army having served in Korea and 3 tours in Vietnam. Sadly, he is in his final days and my two siblings and I are rotating out shifts to provide him with 24 hr bedside comfort and care at a local hospital. So, in other words, there are precious few clothing brags (and even fewer eBay listings). However, there are days like today that remind me of his strength (and razor-sharp wit). My father has been a chain smoker for over 60 years. No... he has no intention of quitting. Why would he? He asked a nurse this morning about a nicotine patch. She curtly replied, "Mr. Benson, you have COPD and you are STILL smoking?" Without missing a beat, he glared at her and said, "Ma'am, you are obese. Are you STILL eating?" Love this man... I only wish that I were half the man that he is.

Thrift a little for me, guys. I will be away for a while.

Also grabbed these two. Love the RLL belt. Figured the Nautica fleece might do alright on eBay.

@Bahljs or other sportswear dudes, is this vintage Nike long jacket worth the pickup? All logos are embroidered.

 

[Spruce Moose]

Fake right? Materials feel real but tags look funny not that I've ever seen this brand

Wanna see more pics. But for my own education, what should the used going rate be for this? Obviously retail is 10K+, but there are plenty of items in that range that only bring a few hundred dollars on the secondary market. If this shouldve brought more than 200, what did the seller do wrong?

 

[Spruce Moose]

There's like 5 balenciaga shirts. Any thoughts? Can't seem to find anything on google. The cloth is nice but the buttons are all plastic

BIN way too low. should've done a straight up auction or a much higher ask. here's another comp for you:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Loro-Piana-...D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557

and still, it's actually not that expensive (probably under 10%!), you could spend more on an RRL sweater at full retail.

Sounds like a real man gets to rest and enjoy a heavenly beer with the good guys. Peace on him and your family.
