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

@impuntura The fact of them putting $200 on that is very troubling. All these self checkouts being installed to move cashiers to the back to price and research.

Couldn’t pay fast enough

If it works, you struck gold. Test it yet?

It lives and works

Wow! Yeah, even at $199, that thing wouldn't last more than 10-20 minutes on the floor at the stores around here.

 

[Juntao90]

Ya in NO WAY at all was I saying that you didn’t get a insane deal at $200. Was just saying that the $200 price should have never even been on it to begin with…

did you ever read the story about Cobains d-18e after he died.
Pretty crazy stuff.

 

[Centaurus3200]

Yeah, Frances Bean was a super bad judge of character with spouses.

Looks like she learned her lesson now that she's dating Riley Hawk.

Nice score. I got a blanket with similar "Cayuse Indian" tag last year and researched/dated it to 1910's - 1930's. Extremely rare considering they're wool and fabric and those 2 things don't age well. Also if that's the original edging that's unusual to have intact and incredible to have all there in good condition.

They also only used re manufactured and never new virgin wool for trade blankets. The Beaver blanket from the same time would of taken all the Virginia wool first. They are also thinner along with the blackfoot line. Amazing the shape its in. If you ever a oregon city mill tag they are favorites for patterns.
