I have no idea what that is. Looks like a Brit is mad the biscuit shoppe is out of crumpets?

You haven't seen Peaky Blinders?

is that a euphemism?

It's a must watch series on Netflix about well dressed gangsters

That feeling when you get a check from @SpooPoker for goods that you definitely didn't send him to consign.

More wool, new w/ tags...I've never heard of this brand before...

More wool (85% wool/ 15% Nylon blend). This thing is peachy... My research dates it to the 60's, but not sure...

Every time you post tags I miss Chicago.

Every time you post tags I miss Chicago.

me too! I left last May and have only gone back a couple times. I guess that’s the joke, everytime I post a hand written tag everyone says “that looks just like my store”. This was in Indiana where I’ll get one odd nice thing a week and nothing else. They closed a bunch in Chicago unfortunately. So many potentially great finds lost like tears in rain.

fancy a spot of tea?

The little one recent college grad is an ould soul and is all about analogue nowadays. l thrifted a lil Scott receiver, paired it with a Fisher turntable as well as some super average Bose speakers and a small sub that I had kicking around the house and gave it to him.

He's loving that vinyl life right now. Told him he need a good DAC next for when he plays his music from his computer because the fidelity from that 3.5mm to rca cable solution will get old rather quickly

Probably silver too?
