@Purplelabel

Do we have any fly fishing experts here..
I just got a huge lot of vintage flies ,cases ,supplies etc .

 

[Letric]

Not an expert but I like fishing. Any reels? Are there any cases of flies stabbed into foam, etc? I find you can tell a lot about the persons collection/taste/use by their reels and what they use regularly.

A lot of that appears to be fly-tying kit. The thread, feathers, etc. The tools are sometimes expensive for that craft. Any jigs or pliers/cutters/scissors?

This guy wasn't messing around .
I found some receipts appears to mostly be from 1998 and 1999.
Besides the making equipment these are the ready made ones .
It looks like he made some and also had some made for him .
Ill break it up into several posts .
Ps I paid 150 cdn for everything.

you got me to reading the ebay thread.

WOW! sounds like selling on ebay is WORSE THAN EVER!?

my friend has been flipping some stuff for me on ebay for a commission. he doesn't mind assholes. i get too worked up over little things. seems like a match made in heaven.

i do have two Outlier NYC OG blazers and a bonnie cashin era pre creed coach bag. i'll lose my **** if someone plays games with those pieces.

i usually try to sell locally on marketplace or craigslist, but clothes don't move like electronics, sporting goods, bags, sunglasses etc.

are other platforms more fair to the sellers? etsy, poshmark, depop, vinted, mercari, etc?

I much prefer buyers on Poshmark vs eBay for clothing. I’ve been using Poshmark for about 4 years now and have basically abandoned eBay for it as far as clothing goes.

Here’s some stuff from the past week.

So bummed this is a size too big. Shoulders work though, so may get it tailored.








I’ve seen enough. Bought the whole box.



















I think it’s a keeper






Before



Cleaned up nice with just a little warm soapy water



After

Keeping the Swiss Army lol.

Hey all - still struggling to get out much but try to make it count when I do.

Spending more and more time in womens. More inventory and seemingly fewer focused flippers.

Knew this was something with 5 honkin lampo zips.

Half unicorns

These Prl MiUSA seersuckers are 36” long but tailored to 30.5 and fit perfectly. Made in UK Barbour sweater is tough as nails.

Look at the brutal treatment of these otherwise minty leathers.

These give LNWOT new meaning. 2 for $40

That’s all folks. Loving the season change irl and in the thrifts. Thanks for keeping the good stuff coming!

A few highlights from yesterday's eyewear haul.

Your PPU may be rock bottom, but your lighting is not @RFHansen

You mean it looks good? Well, it's only lit by the neon lamp above the office dining table and shot with an iphone. I just posted some of my product photos, they look much better.
