Items you like and bought in the past, no longer available. What to do?
Recently I've had a spate of bad luck going back to buy things I really like and bought in the past that are no longer available.

It seems as though every time I buy something I really like, I go back at a date in the future and it's no longer available and I get stuck buying something inferior or I have to settle.

It's been happening with clothing.
I had bought 8 Ben Hogan golf shirts from Walmart that had fantastic unique colors, fit great and looked good on me. I used with my prior company's logo for work shirts. Now no longer working I went to buy new ones and they are no longer available. They are so comfortable and great for everyday and golf but who wants to wear another company's logo when you work for someone else?

I bought a great leather black business card/wallet that had so many compartments and durable and fit everything I needed. (I don't carry money in a wallet oddly) It was a Swiss Army/Victornix that I purchased years ago in Toronto at the Hudson Bay company. Something close but missing some of the functions and an extra compartment from the other.

Lastly I bought several pairs of IZOD Saltwater flat front shorts and I need new ones after losing so much weight non of them fit and of course, they are not available in the size and color I want in any store; Amazon, Kohl, Macy's JC Penney's or IZOD.

I bought Timberlands Kia Wah Bay Boat Show in a wide width and after 3 1/2 years the soles are worn and they no longer make them. One of my favorite shoes ever.

It's happened with grocery items and food at restaurants where some of my favorite dishes all were removed in a period of a few months. I know restaurants turn over their menu but it sucks when you go to a restaurant for a specific dish you love and when you see the menu after you sit down, it's gone!

Do I need to go back after purchase and buy extras of everything I like?

When I go to a restaurant or grocery store do I need to buy extras and freeze the food for the future?

So, how do you deal with this?
  • Is this as annoying for you as it is for me?
  • Do you every buy extra favorite items for the future?
  • Do you even give a shit or just think I'm being a giant whiny bitch?

Have you tried eBay? I just used the search function on eBay and found lots of the Ben Hogan golf shirts.

Yeah I was going to say the same thing. I don't use eBay much, but if there was something like a discontinued golf shirt I was trying to run down, that would be a good bet.

It might not hurt to call the company (if they're still around) and ask if they're aware of suitable alternatives.

I shot Timberland an email and they told me they are being discontinued for new styles.

That shouldn't be a bad thing at all. Their shoes are awesome! And tons of selections as well as styles. Have you looked at Merrell shoes? Pretty sweet also!

My luck with Ebay has been crappy the last few times and so much I've seen was "Imperfect" or "Defect" clothing pulled from regular stores or used crap or as advertised.

That's what I found with Ebay.

Only thing I saw on Ebay that was decent was a bed comforter from Pottery Barn, at same sale price PB sells it for and which is still available on PB.

I love Pottery Barn for home goods.

I bought a pair of dc stag2 skate shoes a few years ago that were the most comfortable shoes i have ever bought. Went back to buy another pair after mine wore out and they were gone. Sucks.

I hear you on the IZOD. I had actually bought a few pairs of pants at Sam's Club that were IZOD and they were great and pretty cheap. I didn't see them again and eventually found them again at Kohl's but they were 3 times more expensive.

It feeds the need to always make people want something new.

Your issues are not just you. I am picky. I look at a lot of things before I decide. And things that I like cannot be found after 6 months.

Buy as many as you can if you like it. It won't be around next month.

Welcome back.
