    PayPal Tells Buyer To Destroy Purchased Violin Instead Of Return For Refund

    Like I said earlier, this has suspicious written all over it. A discerning buyer savvy enough to tell the difference between one violin and another could not possibly have been so short-sighted to destroy a musical instrument without at least exhausting every possible avenue of resolution. If...

    Reproduction 1930s Suits (although that's a matter of opinion ...)

    Chiming in with the others: 230 suit Waistcoat is too long and loose. It's hard to tell how "high-waisted" those trousers are, but the seat does look a little tight. I like the width of the trousers at the legs, but then you have the stale jacket with its bad fit. I like the material, at...

    PayPal Tells Buyer To Destroy Purchased Violin Instead Of Return For Refund

    It would seem this story highlights the fact that services such as Paypal cannot be trusted as a universal means of transaction for all items under the sun. Personally, if I planned to spend anymore than $500 on a single item, I would only do so in person and with the benefit of various...

    The casualization of the world

    lol True on both points! I think this is the most interesting part to me, too. It's funny to consider that an 18yr old kid would have been quite young to even remember Jordan, let alone have any clue Jordan had a line of shoes.

    Coffee, grind your own?

    I have a grinder for the honey and me, but we haven't used it yet. I'm waiting to get a hold of some really decent Brazil beans.

    The casualization of the world

    I agree to an extent; i.e. we in the vintage community have a very broad palette, and thus others might appreciate many 'valuable' items we're after. Unfortunately, one must concede value is in the eye of the beholder. At least as of late, I haven't seen many queues forming for vintage...

    For Guys, a Great Find Is Often Multiplied

    Haha, I love it! I face this very issue - I'll buy the same thing in duplicates and different colors. And then wish I'd bought more a year later.

    The casualization of the world

    Quite right. We should not forget what we're doing on the Lounge, some of us being collectors. On an aside, this article might bring into focus the tendency for a collector to purchase something only for the sake of having it, i.e. the sneaker collectors quoted could provide no real benefit...

    Hat Molds and Display Rack

    Thought someone would like to see this. Found it on the DSM, IA Craiglist. Wooden hat molds (22, in sizes 6 7/8ths to 7 5/8ths). Display rack included. http://desmoines.craigslist.org/atq/2771648402.html

    And by big sizes, we mean... 7 1/2 !? That would be awesome. Pictures!

    Ask a question, get an answer

    A few questions you need to ask yourself - what size do you typically wear? What size is this hat? If you're moving up more than two sizes, you're probably out of luck. Stretching from a 7 to 7 3/8 would more or less work, but would warp the brim no matter how slow you stretched. Even moving...

    Christmas without Christ? Huh?

    Agreed in full! If any of you are out and about on Xmas day, be sure to smile and thank your service people! I used to work through holidays and it was always nice to get a smile and "Merry Christmas" or "Happy Thanksgiving" on those days.

    Toys not to get your kids

    Christmas without Christ? Huh?

    Let me play devil's advocate here for a moment by saying that the holiday shut-down is not universal in every industry and certainly not always religious in nature. Many employers, such as grocery stores, taxicabs, airlines, and even the self-employed, run 24/7 regardless of the holidays. As...
