Never thought I'd be buying underwear from the thrift, but here we are...

It's the skid marks from the previous guy's asser that would freak me out.

Any of you ever have luck reselling swatch books from Loro Piana or VBC? I picked them up for 2 bucks at an estate sale - I thought the closet would be a goldmine, but it was almost all Kirkland. Strange.

Did not kop, but some decent suits for bigger-than-me guy.

@patelsd how big are the swatches? How many are in each booklet? I’d love them for a craft project if you don’t end up flipping them.

These I will kop at thrift price... one of them matches a prior find for me.

 

[Centaurus3200]

yeah, i'd kop those too because i'm a luggage nut. but man, i have a napa leather expandable Tumi laptop bag for sale locally on Craigslist. no bites. even at $50.

only reason is it's a TANK. i thrifted a smaller leather tumi that's much more manageable. ****, i might go to the office just to rock it again. LOL!

i guess no one goes to the office these days...

Caught the same bug recently, knowing the quality of your photography and shoe restoration I think youll




Very handsome, your watch finds and Hans’ perfume finds are what I look forward too most in the thread these days.

I'll try my best to oblige lol

Guy in the thrift store saved this for me, I told him it was fake and said I didn’t want it but would pay £20 as a spare dog walking coat.

When I got home I reluctantly researched it a bit deeper and it is 100% legit!?

You're gonna go back and confess right.

 

[CWOyaji]

Guys, kop at $199? Ten minutes till closing.

 

[CWOyaji]

Of course it’s my size. Resistance is futile.

Luckily the magic shirt rack has been producing lots of these, and Cuci and Kiton too that are not my size to sell, so I don’t feel bad spoiling myself with the Hermès.

 

[impuntura]

Hell yeah you buy that steez.

 

[Reosymes]

Love old BB ties.

 

[CWOyaji]

You know I came to my senses and bought it. Looking at the tag, it looks like it was sourced by Hermes in West Germany way back before reunification, so I'm guessing 30 years ago?

Anyway it's mint with no wear, no grime on the leather trim and fits perfectly. So not going to look a gift Hermès horse in the mouth.

kudos to you and doing your due diligence and locating that tag and seeing what it is.sometimes when there is no label on the collar.
