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

Hurricane Party!!! So my plan is to head out to Jupiter Beach the day after this passes, and "thrift" for some exposed gold and silver coins that are from the various Spanish shipwrecks here a few centuries ago.

Keep us posted. Sounds like a blast! I used to be big into metal detecting. Sounds lots of awesome stuff.

We did that years ago on Captiva and, while we didn't find any coins, we did come away with some huge shark teeth (no, not megalodon, but still impressive).

Sneaker dudes one more assist.
Anything?

those are jordan 13s and worth picking up

 

[Purplelabel]

The midsole on those 13s is throwing me off.

Pick them up if cheap enough and post more pics later on, Frenchy.

Don't remember if I'd posted these or not- I picked these up a while ago and gave them to my brother, he gave them back because his feet are too wide.

Can anyone help ID the skin? They're Walter Newberg for Wilkes Bashford

What about this BB belt? Is this a skin or printed? The content tag was removed

Shoes are lizard. Belt is embossed.

They look good. Worth a cop and a gamble.

Usually when Matthew blows into town, he grabs all the gold and zooms off in his Ferrari.

not a bad idea to hang onto the RB stock lenses just in case you ever decide to make a change...

I plan to hawk the sun lenses on ebay, further defraying my cost. I'll never get Lasik, and am hard on my glasses so need new ones every few years and by then they're too beat to resell...only useful as old spares just in case.

For whoever was asking about a decent camera for pictures. Assuming your phone camera is ****, you can get an iPhone SE used on craigslist for $300, no more than $325. Really good mobile camera and a great phone.

The next step would be to grab an older DSLR body for $3-400 and drop another $80-120 on a lens. But really the SE will have very comparable pictures for eBay. You won't find much of a difference until you spend around $700 for a camera. I'm sure there are android phones that have comparable cameras if that's your thing.

You can also use Adobe Lightroom and batch edit all of your photos if the colors are a little off or if you want to change the lighting. You can try it out for free, pay $10 a month, or pirate it. It's a great tool but probably more than most care to use.
