The official thrift/discount store bragging thread

have any idea what size/model they were?

Had myself a decent day, though I left behind my first pair of Aldens due to very visible sharpie marks I wasn't confident I could remove.

Was this a worthy pickup? I know it's not the highest end Facconable, but it's a step above their basic stuff as far as the handwork goes.

Holy **** bro, we're in the same stores from time to time, where the hell was that and i'll steer clear.

Goodwill in Tulsa - 4th & Garnet - it usually is a well kept store. Makes you think about what could be lurking in those racks.

^ Oh. My. GERSH. Real or not, if it's silk, I'd jump on it in a heartbeat.

God Damn, that is usually nice as far as.goodwill goes. it is shocking how much variance.there is. how has Tulsa treated you? I.hope.well as I.haven't been in over a month PS the curator of the Tulsa Jewish museum is a knowledgeable flipper. she... looks like she's the curator of a Jewish museum. however she.is very nice.

Does the tag look like this? Someone mentioned on the other forum that it might be St. Andrews. This is from a Falconnable SC I found the other day.

Sorry, but the tag is beat to ****.

mind. blown. Original 1995 V2 collection "Neoclassic Eagle" print. 100% silk, I usually sell those bad boys in the 2-350 range. For me, thats a grail find. Well done.

No idea on the model, I didn't look that closely. Size = 10 1/2 B/D. A hair large for me, but I will likely go back for them tomorrow.

Yes, nearly identical to that. St. Andrews it is?

Aldens in terrible shape bring at least $30-40 and that is a common size. If they are cheap, definitely worth a shot at removing the marker.

Scored this beaut off British eBay for £70. It was tagged something generic like "grey suit in size 36R", when it was in fact a vintage Kiton suit!
