I think I'm with you. Feels like it'll be a big headache and not worth it.

I would maybe buy it just for the top but it looks roached too

 

[dazedstate]

It like you went shopping for the evening outing and picked a Kiton out at Neimans.

^^^^^yea man, finding not only one, but two pieces of Kiton in your size is ******* unreal. Also, I hate you because they are size 38R. Just kidding. Sort of.

One find today. Jack george belting leather briefcase. Very nice condition (except that it has someone's initials). We are going to see if my daughter in her freshman year of college wants this so n/a for now.

Try using some nail polish remover/acetone for the prices written w sharpie on the soles of shoes. Might remove most of the marking

A taste of the 1% life. Must be nice.

Trust me man, this never happens. Also STHO, you ChiTown folk have ridiculous hauls.

Guys, what do you look for when scanning crystal ware? Any telltale signs that make you examine further?

Gents, I haven't posted often or lately but checking this thread is one of my favorite things to do everyday. I had a "holy grail" thrifting moment this evening that you hear rumors about but never experience yourself. I have only recently started checking the jewelry counters on a regular basis and was richly rewarded today. I've seen a lot of fakes but when the clerk handed it to me, my pulse started racing and hands got a little clammy...

Circa 1990 Rolex Ladies SS Oyster Perpetual. Serial numbers check out and all the markings look correct, heading to the jeweler tomorrow to look at the movement but I'm 99% sure it's legit. Wife was pretty psyched and was happy to model it here.

Only a couple grabs today, but this is probably the only bragworthy thrifted thing.

AE Shell Leeds 9.5D

I did however get this back from the tack shop

1930's Blacksmith Apron from @Nataku from a long while ago. Going to be heading to one of my best friends who is currently learning to become a blacksmith.

Also got these guys back last weekend
