Splicer posted:$20 too much Try 89 pounds too much. No joke, I used to be a processor for a thrift store (the person in the back that sorts thru all the donated crap). I would've thrown that in the bale pile as unsellable, Polo or not. $100 for something a thrift store would rather send to be shredded and recycled than put on the 99 cent rack. fake edit: ooooh, now I just got both your jokes. nice

I’ve got a T-shirt that’s basically all about baking muffins for some American pro-life cause because, as it says on the back (I’m paraphrasing because I can’t be bothered to dig it out), “not every child gets to eat a muffin” (because they got aborted). The cartoony picture of the muffin has blood on. I bought it at a charity stall in Romania - I guess that’s where they send the ones that America don’t want any more. I should add I’m not pro-life, but it was too hosed-up to leave on the shelf (took me about five minutes to get my head around the fact that someone had paid to print these), and too hosed-up to actually wear.

Is it just a matter of condition and everything that passes gets shoveled out there? Obviously depends on the thrift store, but still. Content on printed stuff was mostly "whatever" except no profanity, images that were innappropriate for all ages, nothing with marijuana leaves on it, etc. Otherwise, anything goes. Condition, we looked for the following (and I still instinctively do while folding my own laundry sometimes, lol): -armpit stains -frayed necklines -men's button downs, look for ring-around-the-collar -crotch on pants (that's the first thing to wear out) -buttons/zippers on pants We wouldn't sell anything stained, with holes, and since our place didn't wash the clothes (some do, some don't), anything that smelled of smoke, had pet hair, etc got baled. So we'd do that as a frontline check, then do another look when we put them on hangers, and then a 3rd person would eyeball it while putting the price tags on. Didn't matter if it was Ralph Lauren or Uncle Ralph's 1992 Family Reunion BBQ, if the condition sucked, into the bale. (Me, I would've baled that cupcake shirt just because.) edit: on re-read, I repeated myself JacquelineDempsey has a new favorite as of 20:38 on May 22, 2020 |

Part of the draw is to get weird rear end shirts from thrift stores. My favorite shirt came from one. It has a picture of a raccoon with the word raccoon printed under it. I couldn't ask for more.

The Goodwill where I live now just flings all their t-shirts into a 99 cent bin and my husband and I love digging through it in a competition to find the most absurd shirt.

I always wonder about the urban myth of pallets and pallets of shirts for, like, the losing team at the Superbowl, ending up in Fiji or Namibia or something. Was there ever any substance to that?

It's to the point where at least one African country banned clothing imports so their domestic industry had a chance.

You don't have to be in the Navy, you can buy a box of shredded up t-shirts at your favorite local national big-box hardware chain, it's very exciting.when you get a big chunk if premium (Glidan/Haines etc) cotton to wipe all the excess lube off your pipe!

Getting bales of lint-free shop rags is great, I think they're old hospital sheets, cut up and the edges are hemmed. Really good quality ones were expensive but worth it when you're rebuilding things that could be sensitive to errant fibers.

I went on a school exchange to Rzeszòw, Poland as a kid and I can safely say that there is where a lot of those T-shirts eventually end up. My host family spent many a lazy day clad in functional loose-fitting niche corporate or marathon T-shirts with things like ‘SANDMAN BUILDING SUPPLIES, 1990-2000, LET’S BUILD THE NEXT TEN YEARS TOGETHER’ or ‘I RAN FOR MAUREEN - ENGLEWOOD NJ - 14 JULY 1991’ without any clue of the original cause or who Maureen was. It could be that thrift stores just distribute the non-saleable stuff to foreign markets.
