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

[impuntura]

Subbing on two teenagers to take the last penalties was the opposite of a big brain move. If I understand correctly it was also Saka's first penalty ever. The **** was Southgate doing?

I know right ,I know they had fresh legs but my god.

Walnut J.B. Van Sciver Co. Bankers Chair in pretty rough shape for 8 beans. I don't think I'm going to pull the trigger on it...or should I? View attachment 1637526 View attachment 1637527 View attachment 1637528 View attachment 1637532

Nay. For firewood maybe. That thing's been left outside for too many winters. Weathering cracks, impossible to fix

 

[Purplelabel]

Rashford was cocky. Why would you try and piss about in a penalty to win the euros?
Absolutely mental, the team is too young and inexperienced but who knows what the future brings.

I just wanna see pictures of clothes...

I thought for sure he would give Grealish a shot.

Legit Check

Never handled this stuff before, so I'm not certain on legitimacy.. But for $25/ea I took a gamble on these McQueen items. The shirts were found together with some Dsquared2 shirts, so that gives it some provenance. The shoes were found by themselves at a different store, but seem to be made well and match with others I've seen online.

And finally these things:

Hard to see in there but it says "vero cuoio" and its stamped on nice veg-tan leather.

They look good to me.

Picked up a brand new in a box vintage Salton Hotray. It's keeping my tea perfectly warm

Cheerio mates

sidenote: I eventually want to get a new desk. I'm so over this antique-like soft wood rolltop fukker

I initially thought about sanding it down and refinishing it but those cracks gave me pause

Also subbing out Henderson? Well well as I said, the team is young and has a bright future ahead of them.

Hi all. Hoping to get some advice please! Picked up this Drake's tie for £1. Im listing it as we speak, but would like some second opinions on the pattern name. My instinct and research suggest Houndstooth, but I know there's a whole world of distinct pattern names out there. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I would say houndstooth. But it’s more puppy or dog tooth as hound is the big pattern iirc.

 

[double00]

hm. houndstooth is a weaving pattern, this is a print. yours also features that 'eye' and more colors than the typical 2-tone ht.

i'd think a bit more about it as a print and try to characterize it that way. it's a light silk twill.
