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

[highvoltorb]

Not much time for thrifting these days and when I do get time I mostly find crap and fodder. Usually stay away from polo, but thought this was pretty cool. Anybody have any info?

I really like that patch, but it's not very valuable unfortunately.

I haven't been posting my clothing finds, but I think I get more excited by stuff like this.

The thing about this is that thanks to the food network, way more people know what all clad is than know what brunello or loro is, so it always amazes me when it's just sitting around.

Just make sure that it's not warped when you find it (not that it really matters for an asparagus pot)

If it's this coat.. I need it.

If it's that shirt, burn it.
The details and freshness of this Harrods suit called out to me.


Oh hai.




lucky linen duck hunt camo, thought was worth a shot.

I know this has been hammered into the ground, but this has to be something?











not a sweater, but like the RL flag, always a bridesmaid...

So glad none of that haul is my size. Holy ****.

Lardini, right? There is a local store that has three of them right now. But they want $32.50 each and I can't bring myself to pay that much for a suit. I am too spoiled with cheap **** around here.

yep, lardini. Yep, $32 sucks. This was $20 which is on the low end of this area for suits now.

Ok now I'm done for the day

I saw one of those the other day. They had it priced like $50, though.

Surely this isn't a case of something actually being cheaper in the UK is it?!

I had one but gave it to my cleaner. You're limited to their pods so get bored very quickly.

Woolrich John Rich & Bros is the mid-tier line of theirs, if I remember correctly. I think the hierarchy of current lines goes Woolrich Originals (green label) < Woolrich JR&B (navy label) < Woolrich White (white label). I have a few Woolrich JRB shirts and a blazer and it's decent stuff but there's not much resale on it in my experience.

Woolrich Woolen Mills (aka WWM, black label similar to the old Woolrich label) is a discontinued line that Mcnairy and Suzuki both designed for, that's the one people get really excited about.

Had to do a double take when I saw these. Cole Haan shell, made in Italy with what looks to be about 50 nails in the heel.

Dang no pants

But he redeemed himself

So I have a lead on a 60s blackface fender princeton, basically my dream amp. If I end up winning, do any of you have any suggestions on shipping it? It would be from an out of state private seller, not ebay.

Thanks!

sure... just give me the address and ill go pick it up for you

but FedEx has done great for me. my dad has also shipped his steel guitars with them and never had a problem. (aside from the cost and the weight)

princeton has that bias modulating tremolo. da ****!
