I actually didn't buy this one on principle even though I dont have it - i have an issue with goodwill pricing a used modern reissue at record store retail price ($20)

[Matt]

Why didn’t you talk them down? The only thing principles ever did was kick me out of school. I know it’s spelled different, fuck off.

@Matt goodwill doesnt negotiate on the west coast

The real loser in the situation is me sitting at home without the Siouxsie album

[Matt]

That’s outrageous.

Amazing come up!!
Bootleg or legit?
Not that it matters, it’s very cool either way, and now you have a new BOC shirt for yourself just in time for the new album release…

I thought the same thing - im stoked to hear the full length after the teaser singles ive heard

My guess is its most likely boot although the tee itself is usa made so who knows

[Inorganic]

@GraemeE fuckin' eh....how many goats did you sacrifice to the Thrift Godz to get your hands on this?!?!?!

[GraemeE]

@Inorganic my current running theory is that my band tee finds at goodwill are a result of people moving to portland to live out their hipster fantasies and then giving up and donating all of their merch on their way out of town back to their home states

Antique indigo kimono scraps for my patching needs

For the 13 year old who is big into ironic vintage tees at the moment ($2.75)

@GraemeE bonsai planter? looks nice

[GraemeE]

@Inorganic indeed it is.
Either need to acquire a new tree for it or hold onto it for a few more years until one of the ones I currently have wired and planted in the ground is ready

At a 50% off event, acquired an Orvis Big Bear flannel shirt, which is essentially a CPO, for the price of a cup of joe. Stateside folks should know of this storied brand.

A grail has landed. A Pfaff 545. This was on the production floor at Langlitz Leathers in Portland for 40 years….the lady who used to sew on it just retired and I learned that back in the day they’d give ‘stars’ to seamstresses who found errors before garments shipped. I feel like I picked up an important part of PDX history.

@Inorganic that’s f’n cool!!!

[Inorganic]

@goosehd RIGHT!!!!! I’m so stoked but beauty is gnarly. I gotta get a servo motor to slow it down, this fucker will see thru your fingers.
