- If anyone finds a tuxedo vest like this, BUY IT! (then send me a PM if a small for $$$) Either way, someone here will want to trade you for it.

Last few dozen posts equal wow.

Huge relief that Jabba is in Portland. CK, yes, those look like Grenadine, but I'm no expert. Oh and check your pm.

And I also miss Grendel. Where is that guy?

Wow! Fantastic find!

Now I'll try ...

All items are from my trip to LA last week from consignees or consignment stores and 1 GW.
I think I would've done more damage if I wasn't busy F-Sun due to my best friend's wedding. Great thing about this haul and trip was everything was paid for (even my 1K brakes) and had a good chunk of change remaining from playing cards at Commerce!
Everything is pretty much available but I'll most likely opt to sell on B&S or ebay because my girl is getting pissed that there isn't anymore closet room.

Not pictured are huge hauls in the women's section.
Jil Sander blazer, 4x DVF pieces (3 dresses, 1 sweater), 3 more dresses from other designers - same level, 1 V Westwood dress, 1 missoni heel, 2 tory burch heels, 2 tory burch clothing items, 1 f olivera bag, 3 marc jacob pieces, 1 ** dress, 1 gucci wedge, and 1 pair of Loubs

Here's my haul:

4 RG shirts, 2 Rag and Bone, 1 APC, Sutor's, and a few other stuff not pictured due to stuff I left back in LA or in my car. :happy:

I left my favorite for last
All Dsquared2 size 46 (which is a slim M or a small)
The cardigan is heavier than some of my coats. You can appreciate the handwork in this. It's so awesome that I wish it 1. fit and 2. I could pull this off. If you're canadian, this is a MUST

fawk. My fiance and I would like to move to LA in the next 5 years or so. I hope the thrifting outweighs the heavy taxation/regulation. God only knows what the state's financial condition will be 15 years from now.

I've been lurking here for a while, gathering info on thrift finds and building my collection/selling. Thought it was finally time to throw up some of the stuff that I haven't sold yet. Pictures don't show really any of the brands but it just shows some of patterns, etc. I don't know how to spoiler so I'm sorry if it isn't and I'm clogging the thread.

As far as the jeans go there is mostly selvedge stuff: RRL(Not pictured) Kiton, Jean Shop, J Crew, Rogan, Levis, and I forgot the other one. I also have some other random stuff like Diesels and Paco Rabanne.

Tons of AE's in the shoes, along with a lot of Mezlan. A few pairs of Bally's, some Churches, Santoni, Ferragamo, and a pair of Alden's in there. I'm sure I'm missing some.

Mainly Trafalgar and Martin Dingman belts in here.











There are TONS of different ties in here. Mostly Robert Talbott Best of Class and Brooks Brothers Makers. Also a lot of Zegna, PRL, Some RLPL, Ben Silver, Charvet, Hermes, Burberry, Borrelli, J Press, Coach, plus probably like 10 others that I'm forgetting.

Some awesome shirts and some pretty lame ones too. Couple of English Laundry, a few Zegnas, but some pretty nice Paul Smith, Burberry, TM Lewin, Rag & Bone, Eton, 3Sixteen, Charles Thyrwhitt, Eton, Etro, Holliday and Brown, Charvet, plus a few more I think.

Sorry for the long post, but there's about 9 months of stuff here, not counting any of the stuff I've sold. All of the pictures were taken in the past 3-4 days. Everything on here is going up on eBay at some point, I just need to step up my picture game.
Wow! That's awesome! Talk about an epic first post!

You facker!!!!!!!!!!!! Snatching up all the good ****! Leave some for us, you shameless bastard!!!!!!!!!!

Sweet vintage BB 346 tweed

Chest: 46”
Sleeves: 26”
Shoulders: 18.75”
Length (BOC): 33”









Bill's Khakis tattersal



Silk EZ shirt

Chest: 48”
Sleeves: 25”
Shoulders: 20”
Length (BOC): 31”






Some dude donated a bunch of sweet PRL ties:


































































Next three are my favorite. Are these un-tipped grenadines?




























Some ugly ass Prada loafers











OR beanie






Sweet PRL tweed ballcap






Woolrich 60/40 park








Minty OR w/ Gore Windstopper & Primaloft.











LL Bean Baxter State Parka







Sidis in my size!


Old tuxedo. Small hole I noticed too late, but it was only $2...Plus I just wanted the vest












The vest:


Tiffany & Co. ceramic espresso (?) cups









And... what could possibly turn out to be one of my best finds ever. I have 9 of these. Done several hours of research so far. Similar plate went up for auction with an estimate of $800-$1000, but the reserve was not met, so I don't have a realized price for comparison. They're at least 100 years old, as some iridescence has formed on the green glaze, which takes about 100 years to form. Regardless of what happens, they're awesome.
Wow! What a great haul, man!

Can I request for some addtional pics of the plate, maybe the bottom or any writings, markings, and indications?! THanks!

$60. Giorgio Armani NWT. Worth the kop?

EDIT: I'll take the lack of responses as a no.

Thanks for the love d00ds. I still have jackets and some pants to post as well, along with a lot of things that my good mate Friskydingo has filled my closet with.
I'm also just going to leave this here for you guys. NWOT
