Did I just get a pair of LVC pants for $65? flat-top, you are THE MAN!!!

 

[flat-top]

Awesome Gene!!! I went a little nuts this morning myself and spent about $300. They had 1930's Menlo jackets for $250 which must have been gone in the first 3 minutes. Those are $1000 jackets! I got on way to late.

I got a few things on that sale, too: 1944 LVC 501s for $55, 1930s Riders Pants for $45, 1920s Sunset shirt for $35, and a wool 1930s shawl collar sweater for $59. I'm going to go broke saving all this money!

What are they thinking??:eusa_doh:
The "Motown" concept might be cool, but Orange Tab?? YUCK.

 

[The Wiser Hatter]

Wonder if the orange tab stuff will be at a cheaper price point. as the original's were.

I picked up the Sack Coat in the dark rinse.
Nice to save 300 bucks.

If you ordered jeans there is a problem.

"I guess I’m fortunate that I ordered 34x34. "

I read the comment
Now thats funny

 

[The Wiser Hatter]

Yes that is funny I am lucky I wear a 40x30 and can not buy the jeans. But losing weight to get a pair.

Don't hold your breath on anything you've ordered...last time I only got 2 of 3 items from vente-privee....I "ordered" the Menlo Jacket, the blanket lined Sack Coat and the blue/black pullover Sunset shirt. I hope I get em' all, but will be satisfied if I only got the Menlo.

 

[The Wiser Hatter]

Love to buy things on a gamble that you will recieve said items. Thanks for the head's up Matt.

 

[flat-top]

What I noticed about vente-privee is that the stock levels don't seem to update right away. I bought the last size of something, and I kept going back to look and it was still showing that it was available. So it is possible that either I, or someone after me may not be getting that item(?). I'm not sure how long it takes for the site to update. I'd say something like a Menlo, that was surely flying out of there, the potential for it not updating fast enough is much greater.
Fingers crossed for you Matt!

 

[mattfink]

Thanks guys....very nervous about the whole deal!

Just received this today/ With my $50 rewards card and 20% off with free shipping it was only $50.
It's pretty killer.

I would love to get my hands on this LVC 1912 Sunset Sweater Coat from 2009. But I'm sure that will be impossible.

 

[The Wiser Hatter]

That is nice I wore my Demin and Supply sweater last night when out under a vintage Blue Bell Chore jacket. An my Mr. Freedom cap.

 

[potemkin_city_limits]

I purchased this Gant sweater recently. I am away until Tuesday so I dont know what it looks like in person yet.

I also got this Double RL railroad striped shirt last week. The details are pretty nice on this one.
