The official thrift/discount store bragging thread - Part II (May 2015 - Sept. 2018)

A few more finds from the estate sale that I got the tea pot from: Another Tea Pot this time its Bamboo: I THINK it has some of the same Characters/Markings on the side, but I am not sure.

Spoiler

This next one is very interesting. The seller had a tag on it that said miniature Morroccan Tea Pot. I am not so sure that it is Moroccan considering the markings on the bottom and also the figure on the lid. When the lady running the estate sale lifted up the lid, she said "Uh oh." She said it should have been listed as Silver. I am not a Silver expert, but I wonder if that is what the markings/characters on the bottom are.

How about this little item: I guess its either a knife or a letter opener. It is copper (?) and some sort of bone. Please let it be IVORY!

I'm 99% sure that's an antler tip.

From my Salvation Army days. Rasta hat, dreads (not real), and my cat pin. I think I was in the middle of eating something when this picture was taken.

When I was born.

I'm half Japanese but I've been told that many people can't see it unless I take off my glasses.

Two brag-worthy thrifts in the last two days:

Cross post from the C&J Lauren shell thread. Marlow penny loafers with the warmer, lighter brown shell that distinguishes the older models vs the more recent C&J for RL.

Unworn with a little bit of shop wear. Paid $25.

And a very recent Isaia navy blue sportcoat. Unstructured, working cuffs, etc... Paid $16. Sorry for the crappy photos.
