That looks to be a thrift tag on the HF jacket, so I'm not sure NWOT would qualify (esp. since it looks to be a dated Boardroom model).

Is the Zegna suit from the "Soft" line?

Well, maybe the coat was new to the Thrift shop, and wasn't worn after it was purchased there.

So it would be TNWOT which is Thrift New Without Tag

BTW: The Boardroom model designation HF sport coat is not nearly as dated as the pictured "Customized" , HF label. They stopped using that style label about 20 years ago.

And yes, the Zegna label looks to be the Zegna Soft label which was very much the lower priced Zegna diffusion line, and had been replaced by the Z Zegna line for a few years now.

For the Trifecta. The Talbott tie is OK but $50 is at the absolute highest price imaginable for a used RT BOC tie (though it's "as new"!).

Good luck on the sales.

As the OP alluded to...the pictures did the talking.

People still buy textbooks? I use my scholarship money on booze, not books.

Thanks for clearing things up rnoldh and scruff.
I am not familiar with the different lines of the brands discussed in the men's forum. Especially hickey freeman and zegna. I have also never been to a thrift shop so i did not know that they also tagged the clothing. Sorry if there was any confusion. I want buyers to know exactly what they are buying, that's why i posted pictures of all tags. If anybody needs extra pictures then i will provide them.
I'm willing to drop my prices if they are too high, as long as the suggestion is resonable.
I want to sell everything this week since I'm buying my books in the next few days.
