The Official Thrift / Discount Store Bragging Thread Part III (Sept 2018-)

Recent finds, continued...

Nothing available at the moment.

Brown are a pair of Hogans missing their insoles.

Handmade shell cordovan, no stamps/markings. I had to leave a couple of pairs of bespoke shoes from a local shoemaker at the same time due to price, so that's what they could be.

This was a WTF moment. Saw the box and assumed it was empty. When it had weight, I assumed it was a pair of used shoes at best.

Womenswear was #onestop:

And MaxMara has the Walgreens receipt of the fashion world.

I happened to snag Brunello Cucinelli's entire color palette at one time:

From the same person's closet, I assume. Really nice anonymous wool sheath dress. I didn't notice it had a couple of small moth holes, so not sure of its fate.

Nothing available at the moment.

Old bowler hat and mint hat from Nagy Wien (pretty well-known hat place).

For my daughter:

This is an underused PRL logo in my opinion:

Rarely find this many times:

The thing on the left is probably someone's AliExpress purchase, but it's actually a nice piece of printed silk in a top-notch box.

Left, top to bottom: Dior, ZeroKelvin, Anonymous, Carrera; Right, top to bottom: B&L Ray Ban x2, Marwitz 18k, Anonymous

The The top pair of B&L have been frankensteined: arms aren't original and B&L lenses may have been replaced as they ground them into the B&L, which is upside down. Neat teardrop shape though, keepers for me.

Maybe, is there a date code? Only thing that looks wierd is the handle river and color of the red on the handles, it’s usually darker

edit: can you get a closer picture of the front tab thatsays Louis Vuitton?

That's all I have to go off, unfortunately...

For those who haven't thrown coins at @madeinbogota go do it.

I had no free cash, so.. I broke a personal rule. And sold one of my tools.

One used Snap-on ratchet.

A tool to help fix society. Whatever 2,500 yen is in dollars?

Send me the request. Good luck on the run.

Loosely keeping track of what people have posted so far - our match is in.

You guys are AMAZING. Thank you so much. Definitely in a little (lot) of pain today, but with the almost $7000 raised that will feed our children here in MPLS, worth every step. Can't thank you all enough, seriously. Words can't do my gratitude justice.

I went to a junkyard yesterday. It was a beautiful day, and I'd driven past this place dozens of times. Figured I'd take a drive into the country and dig around. The place was enormous, with 20 years of salvaged stuff piled into 50+ trailers, roached out buses, campers, sheds, etc. Pics are bad 'cause my phone is **** and needs desperately to be replaced.

MCM Torin Floor Lamp w/ Original Shade:

Giant Atomic Lava-Glazed Lamp w/ Walnut Base. That's a shade I had hanging around; I've ordered a period replacement. The lamp is about 3' x 3'.

Bell Racer w/ Case

Big Thurston-Style Lamp. Shade Is Done; I've Ordered Another Replacement

Chanel PM is one of my favourites. Royal Mayfair is a good find too.

Not much to report.

But I did get this sweet Casio for 1,500 yen.

With a bit of Pikal? It's going to shine up nice.
Bling Bling.

I am finally listing again, and trying to get accurate descriptions. have never come across this version of a brooks bros label, and google turns up nothing under silver label and gray label searches. anyone know what this is? and its not 7 fold, what would be an accurate description?

- Snap-On rules @Thrift Vader
- That RL dress for your daughter is so cute! @HansderHund
- I would've left that helmet because Snell rating expires and you can't use it on AutoX if it's expired. Unless personal use or sold for a motorcyclist? @tonylamer

Cautiously back in the game:
First two would usually be a pass, but fabric and fit are perfect. Penfield is lightweight denim w/ rainbow neps.

Haven't seen one of these in awhile, cheap and in great condition.

100% Ca$hmere

New Alessi and BR

Nice

Trunks

RRL thermal tee and TS chinos

2x Hartmann and Tusting? Nice patina and good comps.

Not really thrift related or so but Suitsupply is running an INSANE deal for their online Custom Made (MTO) Some fabrics are as cheap as 90 dollars for a suit. Go check the thread for a list of some of the fabrics of this deal.
