u

The implication came from two places,since you asked.i was gonna say ,ok then great haul but since you asked.
First of all you once claimed thrift when in actuality you ebayed it so you were already suspect.but again that was then not now,the reason IM ASKING this time is because cjracers mentioned he paid more then thrift prices I assumed consignment.dont make a bigger deal out of it,I was just asking for clarification.and since its true thrift Im impressed.with consignment brags I always have a problem because to me its shooting fish in a barrel.
Because he was with me and he said that he got an item from consignment/resale is exactly why I clarified it was all thrift. These were thrifted, each and every piece. I made a mistake once a long time ago that you mention by letting emotions get the best of me, but I answered for it, apologized, and that's not me anymore and I may be guilty of many things, but being dumb isn't one of them. There's a lot of amazing resale/consignment shops in this city, @Cj52racers will be the first to attest to that. But you won't find any CM in them, no Brioni or TF or anything like that. I've never doubted the authenticity of your thrifts, you get great stuff and it's quite impressive. I deal specifically with clothing, it's my business, and I am able to procure pretty decent clothes a decent amount of the time, because that's what I do, just as you do what you do. I got these items like I do most other goods, persistence and hard work. I respect you for your hustle I would hope a mutual respect could be settled upon. If you have your doubts or whatever, than that is your choice and right. But every word I've spoken is the God's honest truth.

First, I don't HAVE to do ****. I'm doing it clear the air. At the end of the day, I have what I have, It's gonna make me a ******* solid amount of money and I'm pretty ******* stoked on thrifting all that ****, it was ******* ridiculous. I feel no need to go into it anymore, people can think what they wish at his point. I don't know what I'm justifying here? And if this is stemming from my opinion on your outlook on doing business on eBay from the other thread, that still stands true, but this isn't the thread.

Yes I understand, it's why I did make that first statement before the post but because it was known we were hitting up both out here I can understand wanting clarification and I could have stated more clearly. I appreciate it, thank you.
