I vote to shut this thread down, or only let people in with specific amount of posts or even some type of verification methods. Even at a low post count, I believe I've learned everything I needed from reading these threads. Brand names are good to know, but its often the quality that stands out. I think 300+ posts is a fair required number. I don't think any thrift store manager would go and post 300 times unless they are being paid to do so.
All the famous brands that are popular in hip hop songs are pretty much a lost cause, but I hate seeing shoes being marked up to $39.95 just b/c the manager now know they retailed for $500.
In reality though, I don't think there will be a huge craze over the wool products. They know they can't keep this stuff forever, and without a good cleaning a lot of this stuff would not be very appealing to the general public or will become damaged over time by moth etc.
Thrifts stores shifts about $1 billon worth of business to 3rd world countries such as countries in Africa, but people would rather have a nice t shirt with a famous rapper on it than a nice wool suit. Ok I'm getting off track.
