What is a Repp Tie? kzbin.info/www/bejne/fqXHgYKnhMeFn6s

[@bellepierre24]

Great information, thanks! Just a heads up, jacquard is pronounced jac-kard and foulard is pronounced ful-lard. Fouard is the word for necktie in French. Basically when we say a foulard pattern in English, it denotes a group of classic patterns that were specifically designed for men's neckwear. Foulard print translates to necktie print.

[@the5to9Hustle]

Oh snap, really? I thought it was French

[@carolynflynn6069]

Great video! Thanks for the info.

[@stacirizner4461]

Chicken Foot or V print is “Lice” tick knit

@@stacirizner4461 thanks! I've never heard that term before

Great Info!! Repp ties are Right to Left. Regimental ties are (Heart to Sword) Left To Right

[@khinekhine613]

Thank you. You are the tie master. 😂 love your presentation.

[@Nicholasxie]

Your photos are outstanding. I need to learn to photograph ties like that. I really think that’s why you are selling more ties than others. Thanks!

[@the5to9Hustle]

Thanks for noticing! I agree-I think having a great main photo is essential in this category. I’ve always felt like there is more scrolling and browsing with tie buyers so you want to be eye catching!

[@tinkertailorgardenermagpie]

Couldn’t stop laughing at the Ermen-dildo tie!!! 😂 (last name pronounced zen-ya...also that pattern earlier is pronounced jack-erd)

[@the5to9Hustle]

Yep, I know. I just refuse to change 😉

[@jackiegerarde9938]

2nd syllable kaard. Like card. Accent on 2nd syllable. You commented 8 months ago but I felt a need to comment. If you're gonna correct pronunciation you should get it right or it just confuses all the people out in the world who care who are reading this. I'm usually more about the spelling. And I pronounce in French since its a French world. English pronunciation is a travesty. Try the French but you'll have to look it up online. If u don't already speak a Romance language it might be difficult for you to get the gutteral sounds. Just sayin. And I love ties too.

I've got a box of ties and I've been hesitant to list them I listed a couple and haven't sold them but now you've got me curious to go and open up that box again and try listing them with a little more knowledge and terminology. this is an outstanding video that you've created for other resellers or consumers for that matter. so happy I stumbled across you. I appreciate the information and your experience

[@the5to9Hustle]

Thanks for this comment! Ties are just like anything else -- some move fast, some sit, most aren't worth much some are worth a lot etc etc. It's a lot more of a complex category than some give it credit for.

[@thomaspeeno9253]

[@pford0701]

I love picking up men’s ties especially bow ties. I’ve sold every one I’ve picked up (polo, brooks brothers, vineyard vines). I also love picking up suspenders. I’ve sold out of those too.

[@the5to9Hustle]

Yes! Bow ties are a big sleeper. I’ve flipped a few pairs of suspenders. Do you find a lot with no branding? That seems to happen to me a lot.

[@pford0701]

I’ve only bought branded suspenders, polo and brooks brothers. I even sold a pink pair of polo suspenders! I’m looking for Trafalgar but no luck yet.

[@robbrundrett7510]

Wanted to thank you for the information you give. The repp tie info you gave me set me up for and couple sales. Thanks again. Looked at my stock of 209 plus ties , found some repp tie , labeled them as such and boom I sold a few.

[@the5to9Hustle]

Great to hear! Thanks for leaving the comment. It definitely shows the power of certain keywords. Including the Repp keyword cuts out a huge swath of competition on those searches where the buyer knows what they are looking for.

[@cullumosity]

Glad to see more videos from you. (KZbin had unsubscribed me!) Appreciate your analytical approach to what to buy. I look for ties but never find any good ones, even though we thrift in an affluent area. Nice job on the new thumbnails!

[@the5to9Hustle]

There are times I find one or two ties but more often than not it’s feast or famine: I’ll find none or I’ll find ten. If I’ve shopped a thrift store’s tie section/box, a lot of times I won’t look at it again until a month goes by.

Question! I acquired maybe 60ish ties from the good will bins. Between ( Calvin k, Michael k,nautica, round tree, cremieux, d trump, Tommy hill figure, brooks brothers) 6-8 of each, except for trump I have 2. Is it best to sell them in lots by brand? Or lots by variety of colors? I would like to sell in lots to move them faster

[@deborahlarive7711]

What may help also is to have a better title on the ones that are not selling. For example take out the word floral and replace with the colors of the tie. Just a thought. I did enjoy the content andd the information on the type of ties.

[@the5to9Hustle]

Yes, that’s a good call out and a mistake on my part. Colors should always be in the title.

[@Aunaunn79]

Thank you for the viedo, do you normally wash all the ties?

[@AcornHillHomestead]

I gave a big box full of vintage and classic silk ties. I better get listing them!

[@the5to9Hustle]

They definitely won’t sell if they aren’t listed! 😜

[@jochildress5003]

You might sell the Clay Poole wool tie faster if you put the key words tartan and Campbell on the listing. Do verify the clan name, but I think that’s what it is, and clan name and tartan be searched more often than windowpane.

[@the5to9Hustle]

Interesting-isn’t Campbell essentially Black Watch plaid? That tie is just black with a white grid 🤔

There is not anything officially called Repp silk. Repp ties are designated by their horizontal stripes, they are woven on twill silk. They can be considered Jacquard since they are woven silk.

[@the5to9Hustle]

Well, listen -- I don't know who is the keeper of official fabric terms. But what I do know is when someone searches for a "Repp tie" on eBay, they are looking for the type of tie I describe here.

[@lisk720]

How do you get the thrift smell out of your ties?

[@the5to9Hustle]

I haven’t had a problem with odors on ties from thrift stores. I don’t think they get the same disinfectant spray as other items. If ties smell musty and old, like they’ve been sitting in a warehouse I’ll keep them in a large garbage bag with damprid for a few weeks.

[@lisk720]

@@the5to9Hustle thank you!

[@levintageteacups7533]

I bought a Ferrell Reed Bergundy knit tie for $2.00. It has the brand of tie on it but not what it is made of so I am not sure abut that. I know you talked about knit ties at one point but now I can't find many of them to compare pricing. I am thinking about $24.00. Am I in the ball park? Next time I will make sure any tie I buy has the tag that says what it is made of.

[@the5to9Hustle]

A lot of knit ties are wool, but there are knit silk, cotton and cotton blend as well. I don't think Ferrell Reed brings a lot of brand equity to the table, but I've sold many generic square tip knit ties for around $15.

[@greenishbird]

If you have a minute for a quick question or maybe you covered this in a video I missed - but what do you about clothes that are wrinkled or don’t smell so fresh? Do you wash things like pants and shirts? And your ties look so gorgeous the way you stage them - you must be at least ironing.

[@the5to9Hustle]

Clothes need to be properly washed when you sell them, whether you do it or someone else. If they don’t smell good they go through the wash. I try to avoid super wrinkly stuff but will wash or steam when needed.

[@brandondeakins564]

Trying to absorb as much as I can bc it seems like such an interesting niche. Can a tie be jacquard and foulard simultaneously?

[@the5to9Hustle]

If we are being picky, no. I always think of foulard as a small repeating pattern but I believe when discussing foulard fabric it’s always a printed pattern whereas jacquards are woven patterns.

The Zegna tie look like repp ribbing also

[@the5to9Hustle]

Agreed. In those cases I usually mention it is repp silk in the description. But I don’t call it a repp tie in the title because I feel like people searching for that are looking for the traditional striped tie.

[@katerij8549]

I'm glad I found your channel. I have a vintage Brooke's Brothers tie I picked up with a stain on the back. What is your best advice on treating stains on ties with out ruining them?

[@the5to9Hustle]

If it’s on the back I wouldn’t try to get it out. Just point it out when you list it and say it’s not visible when the tie is being worn.

[@katerij8549]

@@the5to9Hustle Thank you! I was afraid of I tried it would ruin the tie. It's in the back so not visible from the front.

i LOVE to pick up ties too! I picked up two beautiful bow ties and 7 Brooks Bros this week. I have a question for you; DO you pass on the tie if it needs to be cleaned?? Do you try to spot clean? thanks

[@the5to9Hustle]

Yes I generally pass unless it’s high value or vintage and buyers might give me a pass on condition. Or if the stain hides well with the pattern and it’s an incredibly cool tie I might still grab it. But generally passing.

[@davidott8838]

Do you only take 4 photos of the tie? What do you think are the most important poses for you to show for a tie?

[@the5to9Hustle]

I usually do 4-6 photos: Main photo, Big tip, Back of the big tip, brand label, content/care label. If the tie isn't a repeating pattern, I'll do one more where you can see the entire tie in a zig-zag pattern. Then of course if there are any flaws, I'll include additional photos.
