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

[mskis]

This is a new one on me. Some of the higher quality jeans I’ve ever handled. Not nearly as cool as the two jackets above, but I was excited nonetheless

The hype kids have overtaken Saturdays.
One very nice shirt though

Drip, flip or skip?

Drip or flip to me

I do much better at charity/church thrifts these days rather than GW, etc. You get a little bit of everything.

Guys, there is a new record holder for Nintendo.

Super Mario 64 game sells for record-breaking $1.5m at auction

An original Zelda cartridge and a Mario game set successive records at auction within days.

www.bbc.com

And seeing what FF3 went for? Makes my Final fantasy collection a nice potential nest egg.

(I got FF1 to FF8 all in boxes and on multiple consoles)

 

[Purplelabel]

Definitely keeping this pair.

I never trust any of these. A good condition working copy can be had for like $60 all day long. The crazy priced ones are for ones never taken even out of the original store hard plastic, which admitted must be extremely rare but who has one of those? Tbh I always feel like these auctions are rinse jobs with one party selling to himself/a partner to try and pump the market.

What you are describing here is fraud.
There is speculation that the art market is used to launder money (I'm talking the big big money ticket items )
But this 1.5 mill that's just pocket change that's not what's happening here .just a moron with too much money to waste ,simple .

I had someone come into work today asking what the best art to buy to get money into another country with. Super dodgy sounding so I moved him along quick and sent him on his way,

You got all those frames in one haul or you are showing what you have accumulated in the past year and not sold.either way its impressive .

I was unexpectedly in a part of town earlier today I don’t get to very often and stop by this Value Village maybe twice a year. Not really the part of town where I expect this kind of stuff. Good day for Mrs J anyway.

Thread first? Main line Victoria - Victoria Beckham. Her stuff is pretty pricy. There is an eBay listing for this same piece at $350.
