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

[flipstah]

I normally pass, but picked this one up because the cloth was most proper.

 

[Letric]

Hey what's that big thick leather patch in there?:

What's that back of that inner label there too?:

I love spotting stuff this way

 

[Thrift Vader]

Just wanted to post a proper picture and info on the painting I found... It's a painting of an archangel with a gun. They're called angel arcabuceros from the Cuzco school style. I haven't authenticated it but I assume it's real as it's unsigned and not really worth faking. These were popular in Peru in the 1700s-1800s. Makes sense that it ends up in South Florida with a huge Hispanic community.

I would like to know very much if this is legit. and what can be learned from it.
Colonial era South American art would be an astounding find. along with the back story.
list worthy? please investigate it.

I am not a fan of guns, or religion. but would be interested in this piece, if you ever decided to part with it.

Let us know your feelings on pots and pans though.

 

[Thrift Vader]

Does it include flame?

Restaurant chef quality is alright.. perhaps better than non-stick. . .

Three pops today and left an orphaned Fendi behind.

IS better IMHO, except for eggs, nonstick yes please, all it takes is one shift on omelette station with the wrong pans to appreciate Teflon

Let us know your feelings on pots and pans though.

Or jump over to the eBay thread and tell us all your thoughts on pot (sung to the tune of Dishwalla’s Counting Blue Cars).

Paid up on these but they’re pretty awesome jeans. Will keep if they don’t sell by the time I’ve lost enough weight. But until then:

Pretty pleased with what I paid on this.

RLPL Made in England. C&J? And any idea on the embroidery? Someone’s initials or does it mean something? Guidance would be appreciated.

Edit: Found another pair with the 389 model on eBay with skull and crossbones claiming they’re EG.

Size 9.5. Normally skip Coach but I think Coach’s made in Italy shoes are pretty nice. These have stud soles and I like the profile. Wore them a few times but they’re a little narrow for me, so:

Nothing special but I’ve only ever seen Carhartt WIP at the Sanlitun Taikooli shop in Beijing so surprised to see it turn up at my local GW. Claimed by a friend though so:

Thanks for confirming.

I shouldn't thrift by myself.

I bought a Nike team sports authentics jersey in like 1998 at Ross for $10. It was his rookie jersey, I believe.

Gave it to my cousin in late 2000 (it was a size 48, looked like a nightgown on me). He still has it and was throwing up shots at the park wearing it today.

One just sold for $305... Probably a $50-$75 item previously.

I have Some Kobe era lakers Spellout shirts already getting action on depop, nothing on eBay yet

 

[Pronto Merona]

Picked up this “3 button blazer” from L*nda this week...
