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

I just look for misspelled listings that fly under the radar.

Serious question: how do you search for misspelt listings? Every time I try, the name gets auto corrected in the searc results

Ha, was going to say the same. Dunno how many ‘secrets’ are left (but if there are, tell me). Search results (with correctly spelled terms) bring up misspellings now...mostly. I look sometimes, and find that new misspelled listings already have a crapload of watchers.

Try these; cuccinelli, Loro piano, ralf Lauren (no ****, I’ve found Purp under that)

Both pairs of my cuci shoes were bought with cuccinelli, the horsey and my old cashmere Loro was a loro piano search too.

That’s crazy. I was sure the cuccinelli stuff would come up either way...

Sometimes, when forced to watch the ever more treacly This Is Us, I look for the RRL and purple label stuff. I’ve found decent amount, too. It’s fun, but unfortunately, I think shirts and ties go for so little now, you’d have to hit a home run like you did with that jacket.

Thanks. This one = bollocks.

Were there no maker or country of manufacture tags? Recent rtw has been made in Mauritius but they've had quality stuff made by good Italian makers as well.

 

[JohnAAG]

Ah, got it. You have to put the search term in quotation marks so it doesn't correct it.

Ex: "ralf lauran"

Very close 950

Which is ~ $8USD.

One of my favorite finds. Got this a couple of months ago, but never got around to posting it. Huge, weighs a ton, and in mint condition. Anyone know what brand it is? There's only the 'W' (or M?) on the lid. No other markings.

I believe that’s a Mario Batali Enameled Dutch Oven made by Dansk.

Try baking bread in it, it’s super easy to make really good bread in there.

That's the one! I was only searching for original manufacturers, not the rebranded ones.
