I ate a chili pepper and when I woke up, this site was here.
Websites
Around Summer 2002, I was spending money on nothing but bills for school and who knows what. My brother had just gotten Scars, to which my impression was "that's really dumb to spend all that money on sunglasses", but then I tried them on and really noticed the difference in quality. I'd never seen a lens be so clear before. My comment was Everything looks like the Autolevel function in Photoshop. What a nerd I am sometimes. At that point the Splice came out and my brother wished he had waited and gotten that instead. So one day when I was at a cookout playing hooky from work, the one shred of champagne taste that I had kicked in and I decided to get a pair
After that, I got a pair of minutes, but they were too girly and didn't look like the online picture, so I gave those to my sister and then got a pair of leather Mars, since they were so odd. That lead to a pair of 24k X-Metal XX's, and a Time Bomb. Then on and on and on. Once the site took off, it was all over. I think I had a dozen or so when that happened.

Welcome, great to have you here. Musty be fun having a shop. I know I'd have a hard time not cannibalizing the profit if I were in the same position.

Was 24K Gold, actually gold? I just figured it to be Iridium, with a certain bake time to get the right hue.

It's from the Fall 2009 Men's Technial Outerwear line. The SKU: 411257 comes back as a Ranger Jacket, although I don't see the ALPHA suffix. Here are the standard releases:
411257H RANGER JACKET Blue Tar-62C
411257J RANGER JACKET Black-001
411257Q RANGER JACKET Shadow/Black-22H
411257JRP RANGER JACKET Gry/Brn Hounds-22E
But I'm assuming the 206 color code related to the pattern on the front, and probably has something to do with the Alpha name.

Are there any tags? Sometimes it will give a SKU or even a Year/Season.

Tell him that I appreciate the reference. C Wires are a nice pair. I still need to catch up on a few 90s and y2k era wires that have passed me by. Welcome.

Welcome. I sold a watch a while back too, and the seller's remorse is real.
