He's a thrift-softer. Tis why he will probably spend alot more than needed buying everything two or three times at a low(er) price.
We're not all made of money. i can say that surplus and myself will take what we can get, and will not ever spend more than 30 bucks for a shirt or pair of pants. bdus dont get destroyed and dont need replacing if you know anything about them, and you can always get them for cheap. I've got tons of woodland bdus that i've owned since 4th grade, worn them constantly, and still are in great condition without any signs of bad wear. who the hell has bad enough bdu's that actually need to ever be replaced anyways....?
i mean.... look at all the surplus korea and vietnam stuff we have, thats still in better condition than my, yes, i dare to say.... Propper cotton/poly (60/40) OD jacket/shirt. and its not even that old (1 year, max). i just have worn it every time i get cold, which is often. but yea, the 50 year old warm weather korea era shirt hanging next to it is in twice as good of condition, and i wear it just as often. which goes to show you.... surplus can be a great option and a great buy that exceeds much of the more expensive stuff now a'days.
