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

[rhz5001]

I tried to upload some finds. Photos taken by sony a6000. All failed, too big. Ok... compressed all files tried to upload again. Too big... What's the secret here? 1.5-2 mb too big? This is why I haven't bothered posting finds in forever.

Snagged this for a criminal price the other day on the bay. It was listed as women’s, but definitely men’s and fits me super well! Nice little addition to the purp stash.

Waiting for @carreragt7 to chime in with "I have a set of JBL L100s..."

 

[carreragt7]

Nah, @Rumpelstiltskin . Just some ugly old boxy ones from that junky computer speaker company Alteck flamingos or something like that. They were so cheap they used silly horns and stuff to try to make them louder. Definitely not slim and graceful like the flamingo they’re named after... but they sound ok-ish. Almost as good as my state of the art Bose cube system. Bose is definitely the best speaker company in the world.
Not my pic, mine are in as crappy of condition as they were when they left their factory...

To add on to my tie pictures, here is a picture of 1 of the 2 RLPL Shirts I found the same day, the second I will again...snap a picture at a future date... the Eton shirt I found at the same thrift and the NWT J. Lawrence Khaki's Shirt I got the same weekend, albeit it from a different store.

J. Lawrence Khaki's - this one I am keeping as it fits me beautifully!

Eton:

The Eton is a bit of a bummer though, as once I got it home I realized someone has alterations done (and IMO, not great ones) on the back of the shirt (near the small of the back, left and right) to draw the shirt in. Being these are vertical stripes, the alterations effectively cause the stripes to draw in and meet together at those points now which makes this shirt virtually unwearable sans a jacket IMO.

Still a really decent weekend though, all from only 2 stores. I go out weekly now, I think I really ma do a live stream (I have mentioned this before) if people want to follow along. I find very interesting items in my area, and travel around for others. Let me know if this is something you guys would be interested in. I really get a kick of out doing this, so I am sure some others will as well.

Updating this, I finally have a picture of the other RLPL shirt:

Another cool / random find recently (nothing to do with clothes... just interesting IMO):

This cup(?) from Franconia Notch State Park. Have no info on this, just looked really cool. Lol.

Any vintage skateboard experts ?

Depends how vintage. ‘90s-‘00s I can speak to. ‘80s and earlier might be tough if it’s niche.

 

[impuntura]

Here it is.im gonna tag noob on this as well as I know he we love it.
So there is one similar to this one ,but the angles are slightly different .plus I removed the grip and there was nothing underneath .
So what is this ,reissue ?

I'm really curious how much that rancher coat flips for

unless it's a keeper and 2021 is going to spawn a new fashion genre: cowboy euro douche
