I think so, anyhow. I have found what may be the best thrift store in America, on Nantucket Island. Everyone knows that thrift stores in affluent areas are the best but Nantucket has the distinction of being isolated from most pickers and so uniformly rich that most locals don't shop there. The donations come in like clockwork as old people die or people just discard last year's clothes, probably by the truckload. They only have room for and keep the best stuff.
We were there for the weekend for a family wedding and my brother found the place on a hunt for shoe polish. He never found the shoe polish but instead bought a perfect pair of probably $400 dress shoes for $4.00. We both love a good thrift shop so he excitedly reported this to me. Being a last minute packer, I could not find my neckties, (shows how often I wear one these days), so I found it on Saturday morning and went in.
Along with a good selection of perfect, expensive ties, they had these slacks...not exactly Dragon Ass Jeans but pretty close, IMO.
This entire haul, including a nice pair of khaki shorts and a beautiful silk tie, (not pictured), was something like $23.00. I had previously walked into a local haberdashery, (not really all that fancy or impressive), and the khakis were all $400. It's that kind of place.
