Found on Ebay for 220. Offered 175. With shipping and tax comes to around 195.

Good deal or kill myself in a fire?
Pardon, did you say you hate spending money?! 😅

I mean...

If you believe the MSRP then it's a deal. But also I'm sure you could find that style/color pant in 300 other non-luxury brands for what, like 50 bucks?

I'm sure the ebayer found them at Nordstrom rack for 20 bucks and is happy to make a 10x on his investment lol

they dont even match the pair on the retail page you posted :squint:
yeah, different season but I wanted to show the price. The inside waistband features a measuring tape theme used in previous collections. The lock on the back is a Schiaparelli logo.

Are you so sure? Nordstrom doesn't carry Schiaparelli, nor does Nordstrom Rack.
I believe only Bergdorf Goodman in NYC carries Schiaparelli.
These probably came from a rich woman in Chicago that doesn't wear anything other than this season, or from a photo shoot and the seller didn't look up the brand. Either way, I see your point.

Yeah you know what I mean by NR -- some other place like that. Wouldn't believe the crazy shit people find there, goodwills, other local thrift stores. As you said, either donated or shipped out somewhere else.

All that matters is if you're stoked for the deal -- I'm a label whore too so I get it lol

You should save that ebay seller and turn on email notifications for new listings -- they probably know what to look for and will have more items like that pop up from time to time.

They run a consignment shop in Chicago and yes I saved them.

Also, it's not so much a label whore. I just want to buy things that generally go up in value and aren't just thrown away a week later because they fall apart.

That first pic does NOT look appetizing to me at all. It looks like a collection of things that would probably be awesome on their own. But horrible eaten off the same plate at the same time. Just that Espaugheti Blanco con Serrano next to the boiled shrimp in cocktail sauce does not sound like it meshes well. Would eat a lot of that on its own though.

Bought this as a project in December but just finished up with fully wrapping it in Xpel Stealth satin PPF, Xpel Prime XR Plus full tint, black emblems, powder coat black wheels and coated with Modesta BC-04 nano-titanium glass coating on body and BC-06 high temp coating on wheels and calipers.

Negotiated a deal on another little project vehicle for my staff to fuck around with today. Would have the deal done on this 1997 Honda Acty 4X4 by the end of the week. Going to do a quick refurb on this one with new wheels/tires, tint and what not for a fun little runner.

Should look something like this when done:

Fuck the price. The pattern, material, and silhouette are all that matter.
❤️❤️ uhhh I think you mean, better than "fine". A bologna sandwich is "fine".
I'm feeling better because it is such a good deal. :bowdown: Plus, I really wanted stripped pants like these. Gods will IMO.

I love the little truck. It looks like the cartoon car that gets bullied by the sports cars but then wins the race.
