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

[ATLjon]

christie’s comp was a lot of two posters, each signed by the artist

Yes! I noted that it says signed by the artist, but that poster was "signed by the artist" in the same way the poster being sold was signed (same squiggly sig in the bottom right corner) so ... who knows.

Because we all seem to be...err...thrifty individuals we should have a barter thread, maybe even a forum, SF's own Bartertown. I know one of you is sitting on an 1950s/1960s battery-less rangefinder camera and needs some hifi or maybe medium-fi speakers

Of course I could stop being lazy and put the baby oil to work, set up my photo tent, snap some pics and just sell my own ****

I spent a while about a decade ago buying up Cuci stuff for my own wardrobe. But almost nothing fitted right. Took me a while to figure it out, but it's because the Cuci stuff is cut to wear like these guys. Bonkers. Sold it all.

I fully support the wearing of an odd jacket with jeans and sneakers.
And Cucinelli is nice stuff. Formal casual??

Yeah, stop being lazy and sell some ****.

Then hit me up for services to find a vintage Camera for you.
Got a Canonet QL19 sitting here. .And my local "Recycle shops" have them all in abundance. Canon,Ricoh,Konica,etc
I also got one of the first ever with a flash (Mint) floating about here somewhere. .
This thread is Bartertown broheim.
And I can find you a retro Hefty Camera just as you described.
Proxy or trade.

Spoiler: Edit: A little somethin like this. .

Is this something?

How many guys named P. Balmain in Paris?

 

[Lucan]

Picked up these chinos as they felt really nice quality, but struggling to identify the maker. This is the only label, any ideas?

Canonet rules I miss my GIII but got rid of it when I moved out of my parents house (which was my darkroom) and the local developer closed.

 

[GoldenHarvestMedal]

Saw these yesterday.

What's the first one? A morning coat?

And this is women's, unfortunately.

 

[impuntura]

That's a horrible pic but the buttons are on the right what makes you think it's a women's

I want a battery-less interchangeable lens rangefinder. Leica M3s are outrageously priced as are M2s. I would 'settle' for a Leica iiic/iiif but they have started to creep up in price and I like the idea of attaining my hobby **** via frugal means, fawk retail. A Canon P is basically a Japanese Leica and uses Leica screwmount lenses so that's high on my list. And of course there is Nikon

Leica iiic > Canon P > Nikon S2/S3/SP in that order

Now let me see what I can scrounge together that is worth a damn. You are NOT getting my Snells

Reliving my childhood pickup today, needs a little cleanup but looks to be all there and mostly original

I like my Contax G1, but the G2 would be much better (there’s a stupid focusing issue with the G1 that they fixed with the G2. But man, are those lenses sharp. As a bonus, the lens work on Sony A-series digital cameras with an adapter.

Wow. One of my closet friends had a GT Freestyler back in those days. He wanted Haro but his parents said "NO!"
