The Official Thrift / Discount Store Bragging Thread Part III (Sept 2018-)

[sushijerk]

Not sure about sales but I definitely see a lot of the rack camping old lady regulars disappearing from my local goodwills in the last week.

E-thrift arrived. Got these for 280kr, approximately 30$ or so. Allen Edmonds Manhattan. Really like the whole cut with that type of brogueing. Will clean and polish them up tomorrow. Woopwoop

Won't be anything good to watch on TV, with them cancelling all the sports events cause of Covid-19.

Just found out now all the Ontario schools will close for an extra 2 weeks on top of March break. :-/

E-thrift came in today. Don't think I purchased from any of you, but love this ELEVENTY sweater and the colours.

(My 2nd roll-neck now)

How are everyone's sales holding up due to COVID? Notice any slowing down of second-hand items?

I have :/

Just had someone request to cancel a bid due to her husband not being able to report to work due to them shutting down the building and I canceled it.

Also, definitely a decrease in recent sales/offers/bids. Not a massive fall-off, but noticeable.

edit: just got a new one "For safety issues I can't pay for this item right now Plz if you can cancel this order."

Clothing has slowed down but I was able to buy a new Ferrari after a few days of flipping toilet paper on craigslist.

Quick question for the group. I was having lunch at work the other day and almost got tomato sauce on my tie. Now I am generally pretty careful but things happen. Been googling but not a lot on sf or aaac. Do you guys scotchguard or similar your ties? Does it matter if silk or other material? Appreciate your experiences.

Ok hippies who needs a hot tuna t shirt?

@Woofa long time ago when suit & tie was de regueur for me I bought all my clothes from tom james, my guy Louie would scotch guard all my new ties and they were immune to every spill I had, well worth the protection for their brand however if I was wearing a 7 fold Kiton I would eschew the lobster bisque.
@flipstah just in time sold the last of my st. paddy's day ties but my box of Masters golf shirts I have been saving all year along with some Atlanta final four hats a Coke friend gave me might have to be put back in the basement,
c'est la vie, right

Haven’t found an Oxxford that wasn’t trashed in quite some time. Heavy tweed

 

[Pierson v Post]

but this guy has been notably vile.

Still, if this makes you happy, then I'm happy for you. Live your best life, for all we know it's the only one you get.

Speaking the truth is now vile? Ok.

And thank God you are happy for me; I was worried that you didn’t care. Now let me get back to living my best life...
