This is a first for me! Tagged 56 EU. Is it an orphan? Thoughts?

That is a badass pattern! Dig your style, man. Wear it bold, wear it loud!

Ebay guys. These will be at a local auction tomorrow and I'm gonna try and pick one up. Do mannequins come in different chest sizes? Is there a size you guys who use one prefer or do you just use pins?

OH WOW!!! How much are you letting these mannequins go? I would like dibs on a male one size 40 to 42, please!

I always pictured you as an overweight guy with a tuft of chest hair sticking out of an all white track suit.

As usual, clothing finds are non existent, but did manage to pick up a Canon 100mm F2.8 EF Macro lens for a song, and a couple tiki mugs!

I thought you might get a laugh out of this guy's asking price:
http://bham.craigslist.org/bik/3100405542.html
Dudes, that bike has a full Campy 50th anniversary gruppo. Though not in perfect shape, the gruppo on a decent day sells for over $1,500. 4k is a totally ridiculous price, but he doesn't advertise that bike properly AT ALL. I sold a pair of Super Record colbalto brakes for $275 in no more than an hour on eBay and those are much less scarce than what this guy is selling.
