[QUOTE="Alison C, post: 80738, member: 3943"] It might be a bizarre thought for some, but I would be fairly sure that charity shops in areas with an older population would be an excellent source, as you touch on [USER=5063]@Jacob Miller[/USER] . My dad died recently and, while I'm happy to sell women's clothing on eBay for a reasonable profit, menswear seems much less developed there. We took masses of my dad's suits, shirts, shoes to a charity shop with delight, hoping that the beautiful quality items that he had in his wardrobe would go to new homes. He lived in a fairly affluent university town with masses of decent charity shops. We went for the one that was open on a Sunday, as it had a vague connection to his illness and that was the day that we needed to move it on. I know that some cultures have a sensitivity around this but, if you happen to hit a place with a reasonably well-off retired population (who often haven't had much call for formalwear in years), you might strike gold and be able to entirely kit yourself out. Shirts, ties and shoes, in particular, might be good items to aim to purchase at charity shops. They'd be quick and easy to try on and you're supporting the charity too, obviously. [/QUOTE]
