Everything must go

Siegler & Co is trying their hand at having an online liquidation sale. For instance, you can pick up one of these brown leather tri-corner hats for the paltry sum of $80. Bostonians can wear them during their traffic jam revolt, while San Franciscans can coordinate them with a pair of tiger striped lederhosen and a feather boa.

They're saying you can save 80% on their adventure through history collection. Some of it looks interesting.
