Took a flyer on this for $50, needs a little TLC. @SpooPoker got any good restoration tips?

Drove home from Houston yesterday, car was too full to bring home the speakers. There was a break-in at 4a today at our Houston location, so I have to drive back to assess. F'n creepy to watch 3 guys tear through your business on the cameras. Was able to lock and wipe the stolen tech, wish I could make it blow up. Bright side, speakers weren't stolen, and I'll be able to bring them back with me today.

@JChong8 my condolences to your family. In a way it’s good your dad didn’t suffer over a long time and although he didn’t get to see you bring up a family etc, he knew you were a good man, which is all that matters.

Off topic, but I trust you guys.

I've randomly gotten more in to hats lately. Probably something to do with male pattern baldness.

Recently bought 3 German Trilbys. Two Mayser, one MWB Diamant. Not a steal, but fair. I think they'd work for casual dress being the hat band is felt.

Point being a ribbon band, especially a thick one would look stupid with anything but a suit, right? Like I'd look like an idiot with a Knox twenty and a fat ass ribbon band wearing jeans?

Anyone recognoze this logo? On a pair of womens Italian sunglasses. Looks like some random dude named Gary trying to sign his name like Giuseppe Zanotti...

Not worth the restoration, its probably only a $300 or so sale. Most people buy those to harvest the fabric to repurpose for upholstery or similar.

Long shot: I love the Magee brand - excellent quality, and good traditional Irish clothing.

Do you think it would be possible to find the trousers for this, or where to start?

Ah too bad for me, thanks for the info! So, probably best to use as a back drop for hype beast stuff and charge an extra percent or two right?

No, just old I believe.

Pile of free 60’s dresses. Some really cool ones and the deadstock one was a nice bonus.
