That's an old injury.
About 20 years ago I was talking to a friend of mine at the gym while I was sliding a 45 pound plate off the bench press bar ,didn't pay attention and it slid right off and onto my big toe.
Within a week it was every color of the rainbow till it just came off completely.grew back this way and it's been that shape ever since .
Apologies if anyone is having dinner lol.

Damn, that sucks. But I'm glad to know you're not gonna get endless ingrowns, those are horrible!

If these are real native American ceremonial pieces, they could be worth a fortune. Find an expert, someone dealing with native American art, or in the auction business. Those could very well be a big deal.

Well ****. I’ve passed up a few Versashi pieces that looked very similar to the one frenchy posted as I thought the sizing tags screamed of Chinese knockoff...

I, for one, am shocked that tie is real. It looks like the medusa head was photoshopped on IRL

Hello Mr Turtle

 

[Centaurus3200]

My close friend's mom was given like 10 designer dress shirts. He gave them to me. All way too big for me. Paul Smith, Zegna, Brioni. Only thing a little interesting is the a shirt from the failed Brioni Metallica collection. Can't find any comps. They aren't worth much, right?

Dress shirts (and ties for that matter) seem to be in the ******* anyway, right?

Have a friend coming over. Thinking of offering the collection to him. For the rest... Not dealing with shipping.

They are basically large and extra large. Might consider offering for free to local bay area members for PERSONAL USE. Not to flip. Well, sans for one local member here who knows who he is.

A few finds from the past three days...

New with tags men's Allsaints

Filson Alaskan Guide shirt (made in Nicaragua)...

Kuhl Alpaca pullover (alrady sold)...

And these are from about a week ago, one stop.... SuSu sweaters... These two are merino...

One is cotton...

And a linen cardigan... Thanks go to Spoo, whose recent sold auction title I "borrowed" to list this one... I'm not sure if that is in bad form, my apologies if it is, I will happily change it...

I found this Vince women's silk blouse at a Mom and Pop shop for $1, sold same day...

And lastly... I posted a Vanson leather vest a few days ago. Many thanks to Stewie for the information on its age.

This "Chambers by Arturo" vest was the same day...Seems brand new, still has fold creases in it...

Pretty good day for womens shoes

Could anyone help me learn more about these Céline (?) shoes? I'm not even sure if they are legitimate.

Top row are very dated, I would leave them. The bottom right Ferragamos are fairly current, just realize that getting stains out of patent leather is a ***** at best, impossible at worst. Tod’s are probably the most flippable of the bunch.

I would've at least looked up comps on those Sam Edelmans that are out of frame on bottom left of that pic too.
