A little thrift brag. I bought this on Friday, and sold it today for almost 5X.

Recent finds...

Nothing available at the moment. Got a new camera and haven't set the white balance, so color is wonky right now.

Nice paisley cotton robe for men and silk for women.

Barbour (M), Belstaff (W))

Can't pass shearling on clearance:

Vintage Adidas:

Not worth much and no idea what the stone is supposed to be, but it was .50.

These miniatures weren't thrifted, but someone had doubles of these so I paid very little for them.

I still catch it sometimes, the first time I saw it I was like “Wait what does that have to do with classic menswear?” Lol

Might be worth writing a basic program to auto-clear it, seems they tend to follow similar spam topics, formats, language, etc, could be a fun project. Heck, I’d take a crack at it just to get some practice, not sure from the user side if I have the know-how though since I’m a bit of a programming noob.



I don’t know if this warrants a ? or ? reaction

Sorry, didn't mean to imply that I alone do it! Many others do it and they have filters in place. I just clear it as I see it and try to make sure it's clean before the east coast checks in to SF. Luckily the filters catch most of it from what I can tell.

The stone would be "Garnet".

Wait is today Sunday ?

 

[lasted]

Anyone willing to proxy a hardshell or down jacket if they're still there? Size M-L, depending on how their sizing runs. Looks like cool stuff.

I'll let you know if they're still there tomrrow. Otherwise @lasted might have already got to them?

Didn’t manage to get over there until this am and that full zip hoodie was already gone.
Picked up the windbreaker behind it, but didn’t see any hardshells or parkas for Nat.

 

[Nataku]

Dang. Thanks for checking!

 

[JChong8]

I’ve struck out the past three days but I’m not complaining because I’ve had good luck in 2020 thus far. Last stop bailed me out after a couple hours in the field.

Also...Is this Tom Ford scarf an oversized one? Thing is legit like a damn blanket it's so big. Comparing on eBay etc, I haven't found much that are this big. (TWSS)

 

[Purplelabel]

I took some pics of this tatty waistcoat using a proper camera today. I’m tempted to frame it, has anyone had experience with doing this? I would hate the cut the label so it can be shown though.

Seems like a chill bro: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Brocklebank

Unless I'm reading the name completely wrong.

• Sir Thomas Brocklebank, 1st Baronet (1814–1906); his third son Harold Brocklebank built Grizedale Hall in 1905
• Sir Thomas Brocklebank, 2nd Baronet (1848–1911)
• Sir Aubrey Brocklebank, 3rd Baronet (1873–1929)
• Sir Thomas Aubrey Lawies Brocklebank, 4th Baronet (1899–1953)
• Sir John Montague Brocklebank, 5th Baronet (1915–1974)
• Sir Aubrey Thomas Brocklebank, 6th Baronet (born 1952)

I think it’s the Aubrey one judging by the dates.

Seems like museum piece regardless. But he didn’t make the Poole Hall of Fame, so ...

Hall of Fame Archive - Henry Poole Savile Row

Poole’s is unique on Savile Row for preserving its customer ledgers from 1846.
