Mr. X Posted July 8, 2011 Posted July 8, 2011 I was on vacation and in a thrift store the other day. I was browsing through the rack of womens jeans. I found a pair and tried them on. They fit great and, looked good on me, so I bought them. Other than slight wear and tear they were in pretty good shape. They were only $9 no tax as well. The brand was Paige Denim and they were a flare/bootcut style. I barely new the brand but I though they were pretty high end. I was pretty sure I remember a lot of celebs talking about them and wearing them. I figured I would research them when I got home. The tag on the inside of the jeans says "Laurel Canyon". So I went to the website and here is what I found. There are a few kinds of "Laurel Canyon" bootcuts, as evident here. http://www.paigeusa.com/Women_Style_Bootcut/pl/c/204.html As best I can tell they are the sunset brand, as evident here. http://www.paigeusa.com/Laurel_Canyon__Sunset/pd/c/204/np/204/p/40001185.html They may also be the "McKinley brand but I am pretty certain they are the "Sunsets". So according to there website these jeans cost $189. Everywhere else on the internet they are similar price as well. So unless they are extremely well made knockoffs(I doubt it), I managed to snag close to $200 jeans for $9!! Is that not the deal of the century?
Shafted Posted July 8, 2011 Posted July 8, 2011 Good deal Mr. X. I'd pick them up at that that price. Good score. Shafted, the boots that is!

SkirtDude Posted October 3, 2011 Posted October 3, 2011 Greet find! I've gone for Gap skirts from eBay myself, sometimes thrift shops (charity shops as we call it on this side of the pond) can reveal some surprises... Kilty
