I'm a firm believer that most of the "good stuff" gets snagged by the employees before it hits the floor. I used to find really cool '60's suits, ties and shirts (like bowling type sport shirts, dress shirts w/ snap tabs and skinny button-down collars) back in the late '70's and then a rash of "vintage" clothing stores (like Flips on Melrose) started opening up and things got harder to find. A friend of mine had very good luck finding those great '60's shoes and go-go boots with razor sharp pointy toes and stiletto heals in barely worn condition, but she was like a size five.
