@flipstah I got that, but did you buy the whole pig and are helping butcher it?

It's a roasted suckling pig or lechon as it's called in my country. We bought the whole one for our family party thanks to thrift sales haha

I recognize those GW tags... nice man

Uh oh, I was out of town visiting family and there was a GW a few miles down the road so I had no choice and stopped lol Got a finnamore shirt also and a minty pair of adidas pureboost raw in my size. The ***** up with the boutique pricing in that area? ***** out of control

@txwoodworker I think I have the same console in storage.
Would love to see what gutting you did.

Got a Louis Vuitton Damier belt on the bay for $5 a while back, strap was beyond saving, found a vintage coach American Alligator belt with a ****** buckle so I swapped them out. One of my favorite belts now

Pretty hard to say it's real over certilogo.

okay i wanted to adress this,apparently if you a number is checked too many times it starts to question the authenticity of an item.
thats why they want you to create a seal of approval now to post with your online listings rather then listing the CLG number in online selling platforms because it ***** with their algorithm.
which it kinda makes sense,although im not sure what that magic number that triggers this is.
below are two links that i found rather quickly confirming this.
ive said it before ill say it again,if this thing is fake I'll eat my hat as the saying goes because the details and quality are top notch.

Anyone have any info on these. Appear to be Bostonian Denny Murray? Date on bottom says 1981. I can't find any completed items on ebay for these. The quality on these shoes is amazing.

Not thrifted but around 5% or less of retail. I am sure thrift stores would have priced these higher

No conniption over the guy who first time walking into a thrift popped Kiton?

Gutted completely. Pulled out the components, cut out the support structure, pulled the grilles so I could cut out the wood behind, then put them back. Put my components inside, set my speakers behind the grilles and installed an RF repeater to control everything.

Spoiler: Back

There's a lot of room once this is gone.

I let that slide because no evidence.

I'm not familiar with these, but that spade sole and the details look amazing. I'd post them in the vintage shoe appreciation thread.

@Purplelabel

In London. Kensington area. Stopped by a charity shop. John Smedley cardigan, PRL suit and a RLPL suit. Left them all as I didn’t feel like carrying them around with me. Surprisingly decent prices.
