The wool pants no longer have resale value. The market for "Commando" worn wool pants has crashed. sick


I have nothing clever to put here.

Make friends with someone at your local thrift store. One of my boys is working at one while he’s in college. I can’t believe the stuff he gets for a dollar.

Been back when e-bay first got going before became fee-bay. I flipped lot thing I bought at auctions. Clothing alot time was little or no one wanted. Bought 5 nice coats one time in a lot for like $3. Kept one I use my self for skinning coat in garage Flipped the others for over $200 profit. I don't bid on any that stuff now because don't like the selling part anymore. My daughter and her husband been buying storage lockers and doing few auction. She recently brought me nice pair Herman mid weight hunting boots. I also scored two pairs of the brown Dickies carpenter pants I like. They were in a storage locker I helped her clean out. She still sells some things on e-bay, FB Market place and some site called Poshmark I think? Guess that's most woman's clothes. Don't know never looked at it.

Me too, and Levis were my first choice. Now the Levis are considered "Select" and command a premium. I once found a Bear Magnum Hunter recurve shoved in with a bunch of golf clubs for 9.99.
