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

[the2ndhandman]

^^ I never discriminate on any given store. Since most of our stores are goodwill there logistics move stuff everywhere wherever there is a need. Just like this morning I skipped #1 as I know everyone congregates there Friday morning and to jump in front of others since I keep track of there routes and habits. Its always a crapshoot no matter the time or day.

I've seen the prices skyrocket at my local VV
so much so that I barely pop in any more.
It seems all blazers start at $26.99 and up
Oddly, it's really only this store.

I have about 2 - 3 stores that I go to and that's the extend of my searching

damn every time i come to this thread it reminds me how dead Wisconsin thrifting is

Pricing is typically set by one guy/gal with no rhyme or reason. There are 2 stores on my route where prices are outrageous, one is a manager who jacks up everything at every store he works at (I've seen him at 3 now) and after he leaves, prices slowly drift back down out of the stratosphere. The other is everyone's worst nightmare, the guy know his ****, and even obscure stuff is ebay priced, I guarantee you he's reading this post right now.

Tbh i try to not make exclusive trips for thrifting its all pretty adventitious, just when/where i happen to be for other stuff. Lately it hasnt been working haha.

Upstate is not sooo bad

Shell right? Alden 763, #8?

Hermes has minor staining unfortunately, but couldnt leave for a buck

Anyone seen this label before? It reads ‘the art of shirt making’ in a very hard to read script.

One of the best AMA's I ever read on reddit was a vacuum repair guy.
He's so informative he's done 4 of them now. They're a good read.

(PS Miele > Dyson. not even close)
