1) Here you go
2) I always buy from http://www.hangerproject.com/closet/shoe-care/saphir-shoe-polishes.html (who supports Styleforum)

SmartAzz.

thanks for the heads up. My BIN was at $25 and I think the bid hit $15 and it pulled the BIN off. (I had offered free shipping if someone bought both Gitman shirts at BIN, so I was confused when the BIN disappeared.)

2. Can someone link me the ebay seller that had the cheap Saphir products? Just landed a nice pair of Strands and McAllister.

Also, here is the overseas seller who had creams on the cheap last fall. Note: there were some incidents of poor packaging.

Picked up an excellent pair of AE Wingham tassel loafers, 8 1/2 D, Merlot calf skin, has heel pads. Can only think they didn't wear them to the funeral. So they were donated. Like new. (Available)



These were $295 retail and still listed at Nordstrom.

Took me a few min, but if you read though a few of those google results, "clothing and accessories" are one of 4 categories on ebay that they are testing out a new way to do the BIN/Auction. the BIN prob came off at $12.50 as it is suppose to trigger when the auction price reaches 50% of the BIN.

I guess I thought the BIN stayed on there regardless of bid/bid price/etc.

Now I know. Thanks much for the edumacatun sir.

Looking for a pair of good quality black oxfords, size 10.5D. AE Park Avenues would be ideal, but something similar is fine. My brother-in-law needs a pair of quality dress shoes. Let me know if you find or have anything.

shoot. I just scored a nice pair of Park Aves but they are 10D. First AE's I've seen in DSM.

Thanks. I'm always surprised when you find a shoe that is in this good of condition. The GW only puts out one shoe and you have to ask for the other. Wish I could come across some 9 1/2's in brown.

Also picked up a nice woven made in Italy, Hugo Boss, 3 1/4" wide, liked the pattern and color:

No name ties for myself, the knit on the right however looks unlike any of the other knit wool/silk ties I own.


Been had glove leather lined shirt bags from the Hilton International in Singapore, this thing is ****!


Seersucker like blazer for myself, no maker tags, fits like a glove. I know it's no Issia cashmere, but it will fill a gap until I find one

Probably should have left this but I thought it was cool. Peach 100% Bamboo Viscose blazer by Jack Victor. Soft as cashmere. Size 44L


Hickey Freeman Limited blazer, wish this fit me, super soft. Size 42 S, available.



Oxxford super 120's blazer, for Neiman Marcus. I'm assuming this isn't part of a suit because the tag lists only the jacket and also calls it a "Collector's Item". Size 43L, available.



And finally, a throw away Ralph Lauren fragrance messenger bag I bought, just so I could carry all this **** home on my bike in addition to my regular backpack Think I'll keep it.
