The official thrift/discount store bragging thread

[mjt73106]

My two small finds for the day, a pair of SEE made in Italy polarized tortoise shell sunglasses. Not a perfect replacement for the vintage Wayfarers I lost over the summer, but pretty close. They definitely have some "heft" to them. N/A

Looks like they could be Oliver Peoples Coco's - You can have the lenses replaced for about $50 to $60. Nice find.

Speaking of that Brioni top coat. My sister is having her annual Christmas party tonight, this is what I was thinking.
Brioni top coat, thrifted
No name made in Italy hand rolled silk scarf, thrifted
Levis cords, not thrifted
Unknown English bench made cap toes
Pendleton tartan plaid tie, thrifted
Vintage BB OCBD, thrifted
Samualson blazer from Horses Ass
Unknown cashmere sweater vest, thrifted

Hows that for a smile.

edit: sorry, you cant really see the jackets

Sweet! So there is a eyeglass store here in Chicago called SEE, does that mean they put their store name on other makers glasses?

^^^^ I don't know what you mean by resold prior to resale. But in general good condition Bally is good for a flip. Nothing crazy, but they move in my experience. Also, im sure you probably already got 2 or 3 PM since they are 7.5 Ok chilluns, you don't like my brioni, nor my filson, nor my sulka. How about this! If this goes unnoticed I give up haha. Trying to show the side vents without sticking my hand in there... fail, oh well. The care tag is the ONLY tag I can find. But the Made in England was all Chester Barrie, right? This is a suit, side vented, ticket pocket, 100% cashmere. The pants are cuffed and double pleated.

My submission for the cheapies

Can anyone help me out with an ID for this SC? My initial thought was older Canali, but I'm not sure.

I just want to rant about Goodwill of Silicon Valley raising the prices on all sport coats and suits by 100% right befor Christmas! Way to milk your profits!

Okay, rant over. I did find a nice Tori Richard aloha shirt (possibly from the 70s) on my stop during today's bike ride...

Not that I agree with them... just saying

 

[Fueco]

Oh, I know. It's annoying to see prices marked up from one day to the next. No ones buying the stuff there...

I'm at a different GW now. Awesome luck. Two pairs Zanella pants! There's a first time for everything...

My Goodwill rant. Goodwill of North Georgia on Saturday removes all the items that are scheduled for the 50% off color of the week and puts them in the back room. Takes a bit of the fun out of bargain shopping. The Goodwills still provide daily entertainment, got a Howard Miller Grandfather clock for $50.00 a couple of weeks back, pretty much perfect condition. And yet the people that price their items ask $50 for a Chinese Prada.
