[Card Magnet]

Good morning guys.

Somebody please remind me to call the tuxedo shop and get the price on my rental for this weekend :lol: . My buddy said he thinks $150, which is freaking crazy (yet seems about right). I think I should show up wearing nothing but my Nore Logo from '06 SPX. It may not cover everything, but it cost me more than a tux rental for one day, so...

$150 is just about the same price everywhere.

Yeah, I think I paid around $150 for the last wedding I was in. At my best friend's wedding, we actually bought suits for that same price, and got to keep them. Surprisingly they were damn nice suits for $150, not some cheap disco-y ones.

Morning.

One of my kids was in my cousin's wedding a few years back. When we went to get his tux it cost around $240. She picked some special made one for him or something. My cousin apologized and told me not to give her anything for a present, so we just got her a card. Then my aunt, her mom, had the nerve to tell everyone at a family gathering how I didn't even get her a present. That still pisses me off when I think about it.

Man, I need to get into the Tuxedo rental business! Sounds like some nutty prices.

Morning Gentlemen

Morning all.

Tux rentals are a racket. I just got measured for mine for a wedding I will be in later this month. They wanted $240 (of course this is to cover the expense of bringing it to Poland where the wedding is). My buddy was cool enough to pay $140 per person so it only cost me $100 (normal tux rental price around here). Either way, tux rentals are the way to go if you want to get some more $$ for cardboard :lol:

Morning fellas

yesterdays harpoons...

 

[CollectorsCorner]

The tux I just got fitted for was 150 as well and 5 dollars to get measured

 

[Seiya]

240 for tuxedo rentals is a little much, might as well buy one at that price.

I had to go pick up my brother at the trolley station.

[Seiya]

I told him to call somebody who cared next time.

Alright so I'm thinking about getting a case of 08/09 topps jumbo basketball. 2GU/1 auto per box, one rookie photoshoot auto per case, 1 rip card per case. 10 packs each with 46 cards per pack. All for $270.

Sounds like a sweet deal there Tito.

Back from my daughter's kindergarten graduation and have to run to the bank to apply for a business credit card.

 

[mstng99tim]

Hey Pucker, once I start unpacking some of my man cave stuff, I have a nice card to send to you. I found it while packing up and forgot I even had it.

Awesome. Thanks Tim.

Just listed the Maclin auto I picked up over the weekend. I thought I could trade or sell it to pick up some needs but it didn't work out. Ah well, these things happen.
