So rare to be able to get out during the workday.

Man, I've got binders full of sports cards from the 80s and 90s at my moms house. Like 1000's of cards. I should probably have a look through them sometime in the near future.

Years ago my mom asked if she could get rid of my old Pokemon cards from when I was a kid and I said yes... kicking myself for it now; I'm sure some of them would be $$$ today.

Holy crap! Deadstock Purcells

I was very pleasantly surprised to find them

My only wish is that they were a better size (these are 6.5s). More average sizes in this condition can go for pretty big money.

Yep I had a complete set.

I had a rather large collection of Star Wars action figures and vehicles; mostly from Empire and Jedi, but some from Star Wars. I had lots of unopened stuff in perfect condition.

My mom decided to donate all of it back in the early 90s. I vividly recall yelling at her that they were going to be worth a lot of money some day.

Somehow, I still have my sports card collection, which is largely worthless.

Small example. I had several of this one.

I can’t even remember the last time I bought a tie. I normally don’t even look anymore. This morning, however, I managed to catch a glimpse of an unusually nice looking paisley tie and took a closer look. I thought it was a Zegna before checking the label. Then found its two siblings hanging next to it. Couldn’t pass them up.

Also found this gorgeous patch pocket flannel blazer.

 

[Purplelabel]

there’s more.

 

[the2ndhandman]

That's a yummy one.

Anybody got a maker? Caruso?

 

[Purplelabel]

oh yeah Sulka gren is my favourite. The Drakes 40oz for Bullock & Jones is ridiculous too.

Close to 70 ties picked up the past two trips. This is why I always look at ties..

The bag has some other polo, facconable, Zegna etc.

Yup, Caruso. Please tell me the the pants were with it?
