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

[LiamD]

This week was busy. Nothing great but lots of stuff for flipping.

Legit-check on Dior shirt please?

 

[JamesJohn]

@LiamD Dior looks legit. Stores have been closed for so long here that I’ve started to remember things I’ve left behind in the past. SMH

Speaking of moving reminded me: if there is something I’ve acquired in the past few years that you were madly in love with (and we talked about previously or otherwise) send me a DM to remind my ADHD ass what it was and if I still have it. As I move I will try to set it to the side so I don’t forget and we can work something out for it.

Yo that thing belongs back here.
$200 was a fair offer I don't think he was trying to screw you,having said that because it's so mint I think you can move it for 300 on local ads.
Bro,DO NOT ship.
Even if nothing goes wrong during shipping ,to get it to to ship problem free is a huge,and I mean huge pain **********.
And even then these are so fragile you're just asking for it.speaking from experience .

Yep, I'm with Frenchy on this one: the vinyl audio guys are a special kind of crazy, especially when it comes to turntables. I once had to cough up a painful $300 refund on a turntable I had covered with enough bubble wrap to bounce it down a hill. Still arrived with a crack in the plastic and was deemed "item arrived damaged" by the buyer. Since then, I have shipped only one (because it was a Garrard 301 that went out at $3K+), and, once the transport screws were battened down, I dismantled every other part of it that moved, took the arm off the plinth, the cartridge off the arm, wrapped the platter and lid separately, and bubble-wrapped them in multiple boxes inside other boxes. That one worked out OK, but I ain't doing that again (unless there's equivalent margin), as it took half a day just to pack. Not doin' that for $300. Same with audiophile speakers, the big ones. Now I sell those only locally. Just too much of a pain to deal with otherwise. Plus, the (thrifted) Sonos speakers I have in the house now are, like, 95% as good as my most robust audiophile speakers (currently Dahlquist DQM-9s). It's not like the days when everyone had crappy sound except the audiophiles. Now, most of it is pretty damn good. Heck, even my Roku Streambar has exceptional, crisp sound, with superlative vocal articulation, and it was under $100 new.

Found a few more things - the suits are N/A, needed a few for work and the thrift delivered! Know that GA isn’t the best quality, but at 0.4% of retail, and they fit, no complaints. Plus they’re either current or super recent.

also picked up a Bertello pizza oven for 6% of retail... still no backyard to use it in yet with this damn housing market though.

The GA Wallstreet suits may in fact be from the full canvas line, which is the good stuff. High retail on those ones.

You weren't kidding about pricey - $3895 USD - so something like $15,000 (+tax) in suits for a whopping total of $54.37.
