The official thrift/discount store bragging thread

[maro2280]

Picked these up today. They look like a cross between old Jordan's and snowboarding boots. I can't find any information on them. Does anyone know anything about them?

Derail: wish I had a use for a 3D printer...now offered at Home Depot for $999. I used to be an early adopter - paid over a grand for my first scanner, but gonna wait until prices come down before considering a 3D printer...and then try to figure out what I'd use it for. Cool technology though.

Cincinnatti peeps...might be worth a look to check out this warehouse, hard to tell much from listing.

Dan, go scope it out for me. I'll go grab whatever you can't fit in your car.

I read an interesting article this morning about tailor Martin Greenfield. I had no idea he was a Holocaust survivor. Apparently he has a book out as well.

Sorry about your uncle, and the baby as well. Mine has been going through another change (10 months) that's been driving us crazy. Hang in there.

Speaking of MG, today I found a super minty from 2013 MG navy sport coat. Adrenaline when I saw the "Hand tailored in U.S.A." tag. Then to my surprise I found two shirts by MG as well, same store.

Then I pulled a Suitsupply Copenhagen that fit me. Again, I love thrifting in NYC...

Richard Diebenkorn print from SF MOMA, $10.

Happy to find this as I'm a fan and used to own another Diebenkorn print (plus my apartment's walls are bare):

Thanks thread peeps for mentioning Mister Hollywood, what is the f'n deal? Would have totally passed by, but something about the tag. The retail and resale seems nuts.

Is it Marshalls? the name of the store some of you guys go to that have really good prices, not as low as thrift but still way below retail? Had the most awkward day thrifting...wound up spending $180 on hand rolled silk scarves and pocket squares and I don't know why.... also got this ridiculous mint vintage 3 piece suit that preliminary research leans towards it being fairly epic...@SpooPoker ....or anyone for that matter... is Marc Frederic made in France good? Went out of my comfort zone on this but for the price plus condition, I had to do it.

There's a bunch of places. Marshalls/TJ Maxx are the same thing. Nordstrom Rack, Neiman Marcus Last Call, Off Saks, etc. They're discount stores of overstock of their respective stores. You don't always find the best deals here but, just like thrifting, gems often arise.
