The official thrift/discount store bragging thread

[grendel]

Stopped by a store today. Haven't done much thrifting since the haul.

Samuelsohns are 40R, Oxxfords 43R, Zegnas 42 and 44R, Chester Barrie 44R, Brioni 44R

Availiable-ish, meaning, if you offer a fair price, I will be inclined to sell directly. Otherwise, it gets shipped off for the bay.

Measurements on the Samuelsohn's?

Yes, if he is going to consign them (and pays 50% to someone, assuming), then it would be better to sell them fast and easy on the forum for 50% of ebay and everyone wins.

Quote:
Yup (almost everything I have for sale in my ebay store actually)

Only one find today:

A Chipp 2 silk tie. Red w/ black Scottish Terriers. Pretty cool. (available if anyone is interested).

Second one from the left on the website front page.

Has anyone heard of the brand Eckerle from Germany? I couldn't leave this thing at the GW yesterday, especially since it was one of the yellow tagged half off specials. It's double vented, super 120s (E Thomas) and pretty badass imo. It's measures out to about a 40R...I will literally send this to someone for the cost of shipping. Somebody should be rocking this.

I may be late, but PM sent.

So.... You guys were right. NOVA sucks for thifting. I didnt find shite, save 3 pairs of cufflinks ( you know me). However before I left PA I found another sweet pair of Hanover longwings in brown(10 EEE/E). A older Nordstrom tweed suit. A burberrys sc and a pair of church's loafers I think they are 9.5. They are stamped 95 f. Pics when I return on Sunday.

I wish I was still wearing sport coats regularly. That should fit me nicely but as I sit here in my black shirt and khaki pants I think...what's the point?
In other news, I found this Zegna Soft shirt in what everyone HERE tells me is the worst possible color for me (light olive?) but it's the color that the "House of Cards" wardrobe folks are making us wear. I'm determined to dress myself for this show as much as possible but I'll be damned if I'll buy Staffords just because they're my size and the right color!

Then I found this PRL. It fits guuuuud!

I take my little victories where I can find them but if anyone posts a pair of 9 1/2 D US shoes and I act interested, smack me until I wake up.

Did you see the Florsheims I posted today?

So, been trying to avoid thrifting and the temptation of this thread a bit, as there was a bike I've been lusting after for about a year or so that popped up on eBay. Was trying to conserve funds, but it ended over my budget, so the thrifting binge continues...

First, NOS Sidi bike shoes. Nearly **** myself when I saw them in the case. Then when I realized they were women's. So, off to the 'Bay...

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

Some ties... The Saks one is available. The rest I fancy.

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

(Eagerly anticipating: "That Hermes isn't real. The carriage on the tag has too many spokes," and other such arguments that always follow the posting of an Hermes tie)

More ties...

Le Dunhill lighter:

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

This is a Robert Graham, correct?

Anyone want some great summer pants? Size 36 BNWOT Bill's Khakis yellow chinos:

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

AE McAllisters:

Andover Shop tweed:

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

HF Tweed suit:

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

Both tweeds are going into the vault until winter time, UNLESS someone has some equally awesome tweeds in a slim 38R to trade.

Very vintage Sperry Top Siders. My guess, '50s/'60s?

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

^ That Hermes looks real to me, and its awesome. As is that Dunhill lighter.

 

[noob in 89]

That Hermes is kick-ass and the T&A is pretty sweet, too. Good score.


In other news, wat's going on with darkmatter's prom!

Yes and that's my point. I'm no longer yielding to the temptation of 9.5 footwear. It's very disappointing when I put them on and they're too tight.
