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

Heavy copper sauce pan to add to my French cookware collection.

Not sure if you know this, but for others as well.. That particular style of french copper pan is known as a Sugar Pan or "poêlon à sucre". It's a very specific shape and purposed pan mainly used for creating caramels. The straight conical fixed handle, pouring spout, tall sidewalls and flat bottom.

A must for any patisserie or good home kitchen. That will last generations if cared for. Great score!

Hello all, live here, is it worth picking this up? My size, they've sat for a couple of weeks now, no trousers but might work as a sport coat. Double vented. Dark blue with small white dots.

One fairly small hole on the arm as shown plus no trousers is the main doubt, but it's Chester Barrie. Not sure of age.

@DinhoT51 I’d leave it - great quality but it’s an orphaned suit jacket so no market

Thanks Simon, yeah I ended up leaving it. Left it the last couple of weeks, probably for the right reasons, but the label and general quality always made me think twice when I'd see it!

I have a personal rule,if I gotta talk myself into it ,I leave it.

I thought I had a crappy run only picking up this one shirt because I thought it was cool

Turns out it’s handmade by Bruce Weber, the fashion photographer that made those iconic 80s/90s Calvin Klein ads, and has quite the following.

Damn that Green Polo RL shirt is nice. Pure wool, US made and the styling/construction is great. It's the small details like pocket shape, the style of buttons and color matched stitching for me that make it attractive.

Surprised to find vintage Celine at this particular spot.

Have never found Tom Ford tailored items before, can anyone confirm if this is real? It doesn’t have the classic hexagonish “Tom Ford” inside nor any additional labels inside beside what the images show.

It generally feels pretty well made, but again I’m not familiar with Tom Ford quality and sourcing. Read in another thread that they sometimes put “Made in China” for salesman uniforms, is it possibly that? Sleeves are unfinished which strikes me as odd if it is fake. Pretty cheap, should I take a chance?
