Ebay scores today: 1 pair chunky dark-brown, all-leather penny loafers (EUR 1.50); Baracuta G9 (GBP 15).
Assembling a UK Ivy wardrobe on a shoestring as you may guess.
William Lockie lamswool sweater in camel, from Oliver Brown. Unfortunately, wrong size, so sweater shipped back.
A pair of Albert Thurston braces from the worlds most expensive store `Henry Bucks' in Australia. l'm peeved at paying nasty money, but i'd rather pay hefty payments than order online. Nothing like buying in person! Prices at Henry Bucks are revoltingly criminal.

Prior to a self-imposed cease-fire on Ebay, a Brooks tweed sack sportscoat. From the measurements, it should be a very good fit.
a maroon slim-fit baracuta off evilbay. then a long, long ebay ceasefire!
7 tubes of Collonil `ultra cream'...all different colours. The only difference b/w `regular' and `ultra cream' is that the later has the ingredient `Lanolin'. lt's great stuff to keep the leather moist and well fed.

Very Anglo Prep style. The pure source, little changed since the 1900's if not before.
Takes me back to schooldays...

And a knit tie too!
agree with bandofoutsiders, have also had nice shoe finds on ebay, as well as some other items like my new slimfit g9.
