Question about a tie tac....so to speak

Ok Brothers,

Im a rather large guy, about 6'5" and around the 310 poundage marker, and I have a problem when it comes to wearing a tie. I always have to make the small end shorter so that they look proper when I wear them, and I absolutely hate when the small part doesnt stay behind the big part because it will not fit into the provided loops. I have thought about a tie bar, but it would look pretty odd because it would have to be so far up that it wouldnt fit right.

So my question is:
Do we have anything that could be used as a 'tie tac', or does anyone have any suggestions other than buying from the Big & Tall section (most of the time they are too expensive, and I can find better ties cheaper in normal sizes). Would the lapel pin or friendship pin suffice, or would that be in bad taste or possibly even improper use of said pins.

Please help me out and let me know what you guys think.
