The official thrift/discount store bragging thread

[barrelntrigger]

I picked this up for me, it's from a San Francisco men's clothing store called The Hound. It fills a nice slot in my closet, as I'm working on building up my SC selection. Slightly above thrift pricing at $20. I was waiting to see if there was going to be a sale on it, but it's been a month so I just snagged it before someone else picked it up.


And along the lines of Greg16's "Gentlemen, I know what you are thinking and the answer is yes, I can proxy."
Why so serious?

The Hound sells pretty cool stuff. They usually sell Samuelsohn RTW and Santorelli to name a few. I thirfted a 2 piece Sammy suit and a Sammy SC that was sold by them. Pretty cool stuff!

+10000 it wouldn't even let me view my cart or anything I just gave up it probably would have been to short on my anyways

If you really want one I would go back and try it again. It worked for me after a few trys. The website didn't post measurements but I think Bogs are known for their short coat length. I think Coat has a long length than K Jacket.

I usually leave striped orphans but this was cold ridonkulous and my size. I'm also a sucker for da purple lining . You'll bet I'll be haunting that thrift in the next few weeks to see if the pants turn up. I made one of the employees take a pix of it with her iphone. And, maybe one of youse can hook a brother up if you happen to see the pants in ANY size in ur neck of the woods . The fabric is something called micronosphere which is supposedly good for antiwrinking abilities.

If that was a suit, and two sizes smaller, you would have a fuckton of my money.

Very interesting, Bytor... (And great haul of course!) Is there a reference for RN number lookups (a book I can buy, website I can visit, or list being passed around) that you use?

I'm about to book a flight out to see my brother in LA at the end of January! He'll be working during the day giving me lots of time on Thursday and Friday afternoon to, well, you know...

Hope you have better luck than I did. I think I was just at the wrong places at the wrong times.

I sold a flawless Traveller Micronsphere suit for all of $169.99. You obviously have more sway than I do and could've probably pulled upwards of $400, but I am a plebe who is slave to the best offer.

I think Spoo wanted it for himself. So do I if he finds the pants and it's around a 42.

Hey, if not, I'll at least get to meet Ashton Kutcher. Maybe he has some Brionis he doesn't want anymore.
