Calling paypal worked, they immediately resolved the negative balance and said they will try deal with the credit card company regarding the chargeback. Apparently their seller protection protects you from every claim if you just have valid tracking, and also a couple of other small requirements like signature confirmation for items over $700 in value.

oh and lol:

I like the UniqloxLemaire stuff a lot. Most of it seems pretty comfy and easy to wear. I'm contemplating copping some of the women's pieces and seeing if it can get worked in with the male pieces, most are fairly unisex and I feel like it could work without being too obnoxious/loud.

Recent interactions on grailed:

I posted pictures of the price tag of a yohji blazer bought in China, some dude accuses me of reselling for 100x the price cuz he thinks yuan is yen.

Some guy lowballs me for 50% of asking price, I tell him politely it's too low, he resends the offer and writes "pls man that's all I have right now"

Guy asks what material fleece pods are made of, I tell him it's cotton and feels like sweatpants. He asks for pictures so he can "tell the texture," I take them, he asks again how they feel to to the touch, and whether "one side is rougher than the other or rough on both sides."

Our very own phosej has the most popular item on grailed right now, a MMM sweater for a good price, but I'm guessing he hasn't checked offers in like a year.

Cool stuff:

Nike FK Mercurials based on the HTM design, but more readily available, coming this fall

Raf Simons New Order Parka that was listed for $10k and sold for $7k, and I'm guessing way overpriced. The backstory is interesting, and travis scott wore it for a music video though he sucks.

He also wears a camo bomber.

So I'm gonna go ahead and get the cape from uniqlo x lemaire. I wonder if other guys will do so too or people on mfa were just bandwagoning when I said I would whemn it dropped. I wonder what size though. I'm usually xs in everything so it should be either S or M? I've never bought uniqlo women's before.

I'm really tempted to buy that trench, but I know I shouldn't.

I hate being interested in this hobby sometimes, meh

Edit: make sure you post some fit pics of that cape if you get it

It's hard to get a good trench for cheap, though and I have a beat up old one that needs replacing

edit: I doubt there is a better trench coat outside of thrift store finds anywhere close to the price

you probably have the burberry trench in mind, that stuff is way past, you don't need a trench, get the long coat if anything

Yeah I do like Burberry trench's.

I have a bunch of topcoats and a decent duffle anyway, plus the knitwear is probably the best value among the men's stuff so I might go for sweater or cardigans.

eh

It really depends, I'm guessing the knits will be a lot thinner than it looks, I'm gonna see what pictures they put up at release and decide, but probably only gonna get a pair of trousers

Yeah it likely will, but 50 bucks for a lemaire sweater is hard to pass up.

Uniqlo always seems to hit the mark with their products and collaborations so I'm willing to be confident with this one too.

As outerwear coz I'm always cold when I travel. Probably with textured neutrals. I'm gonna say beige/grey shirt, wooly pants.
