Two things made my afternoon, a bunch of housekeeping taken care of by seller friendly ebay reps, and this ethrift came in. The pictures were basically completely black, but I took a gamble on it. Oldest BB I've ever handled.





Fits perfectly over a tee shirt, so for its intended purpose under a suit, I'd guess it must be a 40, so too small on me. Mint, no moth nibbles or tears, hand sewn buttonholes, really nice.

Next, one haul from yesterday. A haul so big that it was a 2 man job. Wes was my wingman for this pick, so consider this part 1 of 2 - his post to follow shortly. Everything - and I mean everything is stone mint NWT or NWOT shape. Jackets are NWOT and suits maybe 1 wear at maximum. All shirts are factory folded. Outerwear is NWOT. Ties are NWOT. Stone. Cold. Mint.


I was wondering what you found. Didn't have a second to pay attention. Just got home. Pics coming eventually.

We've done this a few times, its kind of organic. Kind of a grab and keep thing but he found all the Versace squares and gave them to me. I found a bunch of grenadines and gave them to him. Ebb and flow.

the ghost and the darkness strike again.
