The official thrift/discount store bragging thread

[GMMcL]



This should be a new thread contest

CHALLENGE. ACCEPTED.

Latest "haul"...
And a pair of shoes I'm sure are solid Ebay fodder. Romano Martegani double monk straps (11 wide).

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

Double monks in a thrift? Rarer than boots.


1 store today. A wool square (with machine sewn edges. I won't tell if you don't). Currently de-mothifying in the freezer.

Awesome! Thanks! I didn't know that you could search like that.

Sorry, I know this is off topic, but would someone mind PMing me the link to the shoe care thread? I have a particularly stubborn pair of vintage boots that refuse to moisturize.

I really enjoyed my day today. DEFINITELY overspent. I went to stores where I was forced to pay 3x more than usual, but I think I came out with some killer stuff. It is all available, but I am in deep. So, that means, to those of you who I am in trade talks with, lets get that done quick because Thursday listings are coming.

First find with a story. I am in a consignment shop and looking for obviously extraordinary things that I can't find in thrifts. So I feel something that is quite amazing, pull it out, and bang Kiton...but not just any Kiton. I take it to the register despite the $88 price tag because I want this bad boy right? So the lady at the register is like, oh you stumbled across the Burberry suits, that were priced at $150-250. And I say no, just this. And she says, well Neiman Marcus is still a good brand right? 14 Micron, Super 180s, $9000 retail. Boom.

The sleeves have no buttons on them but it looks like the buttons were once there, they are in the pocket.




























RLPL Pinstripe SC 44L
Yeah yeah, it's an orphan, but its pretty cool. Who makes the Made in England again?



























Paul Stuart Khaki SC 42S
It has a small mark on the top left sleeve.

Enrico Isaia by Isaia Black 3 roll 2 Blazer 39-40R






























Belvest 41-42R
I missed two holes on this one. I am pissed about it because I paid up due to its awesomeness. I hate dim lights.

That thing feels like the stuff of ******* dreams, doesn't it? That's just like the one I found last year. Still hands down the most incredible feeling wool I've ever handled. 'Grats.

They had quite a few more isaia, but kind of expensive so wanted to test the water with these first. Also had a (wool?) kiton that I probably should have grabbed but money is tight at the moment.

That moment when you say to yourself, "Please let those be my size!!"

My thoughts when I first saw it... I don't know much about the brand, but it appears to be fairly well regarded.

You know that's just a remake, right? In case you haven't seen it:

It says "Welcome to Banf" and has the distasteful rising sun flag. Just don't let your son wear that in Japan.

Does anyone recognize this print? I thrifted this shirt for my son. The tag was cut out and there's no info anywhere on the t-shirt.
He keeping it because he thinks it's hilarious but I'm really just wondering what the writing says.
