Now hold up a minute. Thats JoePa, not Sandusky. That will make a big difference in your potential buyer market.

Decent week, more stuff heading to SPOO.
Highlights:

Storm system was a pop for me.

Shell in my size.
Now here is an interesting pair. Did notice at first but two different shell shoes, bought them anyway and willgo back but i figure someone else has a mismatched pair of shell florsheims,
.

And this is one of my favorite finds ever:

Old school Canali dinner jacket? All silk. Will be heading to SPOO.

And finally, as promised, HUNT CLUB for me:

Southern Tide Skipjack polo size XL

Vineyard Vines polo size XL

Luciano Barbera polo size estimated to be XXL

Lilly Pulitzer polo size L

Emporio Armani long sleeve polo size L

Faconnable polo size L

All going to that place...

 

[hbkshin]

I got that exact one too.

 

[Jompso]

What the **** is Hunt Club, I don't believe its spanned our vast nation and cemented a presence on this side of the country. From what I gather, it ******* sucks. Its fake Ralph Lauren?

Thats good news, I didn't know the face just knew there was some "stuff" going on at Penn state that year. Having a guy like that on your shirt is pretty undesirable id imagine.
I posted all that stuff and only that shirt got any attention.... lol

I forgot to post these LEVIS BIG E's in the post earlier.......
Im out thrifting now, and it looks like im going to post another round later.....

Alden, made in england BB, miu miu, rlol precursor, dior and a pic tease:

Ok so this raises a question for me. First, which matters greatly prior to the second, was it D&G or was it Dolce & Gabbana mainline. If you answered using the second option move forward to this question. Why did you leave it? If they want 50 then give them 50, if it was very nice like you said it was, a very nice DG mainline jacket on the bay will triple that number, thus you profiting. Did you turn it down based on principle? That since its a thrift store it shouldnt be 50 and your not gonna buy it?

EDIT: To add a quick note: not a single one of those questions was phrased in any other way as pure, matter of fact questions. I am genuinely curious and that was all dead serious.

Oh yeah! All valid questions, and i may well go back for it tomorrow. The thing is, i don't drop the kind of dough you do that often. And i was already $200 in for the day with a pretty great haul, so i made a call in the moment. But it's probably worth the money in terms of resale, though it was a bit steep compared to standard local prices.

Ok so it was as much as a budgeting concern as it was price. I am just curious because my prices are far steeper than probably everyone else here, however I pay them, even though I know it's total bullshit and its a thrift shop, because even at the price I pay I can make 4x my mom back (just example). So I am always curious as to why people in other parts of the country put expensive pieces back. because at the end of the day, your gonna make a solid return. Thanks for answering my question.
