    Optimo was listed as PERFECT, what's this?

    No complaint... The hat is fine, I'm not complaining b/c I know the value, as I said before. I know the hat is worth it. What my issue was, is the use of the word perfect for something that in fact was not because of the liner stain. Sure I could send it out, or clean the liner my self which is...

    Optimo was listed as PERFECT, what's this?

    Perfect.... Lots of good information regarding the preception of the word "perfect". What I have gained here is to NEVER use the word perfect, becuase we could always find some fault in something; but what I also hear, is honesty, and making mention of minor issues such as the liner stain...

    OR color DRB I need to make an inquiry as to the appropriate color name. It looks alot like "fawn"??. The color shown in the picture is near identical to the hat's color. I'm not sure though what Stetson calls this color...will try to find out.

    Optimo was listed as PERFECT, what's this?

    That could be... Probably dodgy, I can't see how one can say it isn't there or does not exist. Some other good responses as well, thanks. Don't get me wrong fellas, I like the hat, it fits well; I dig the color, just looking to get opinions on that subjective word "perfect." ;) So I...

    Optimo was listed as PERFECT, what's this?

    Thanks I'll give that a try I'll give that a try. I'm going to see if I can clean the liner as well. I had real good luck with a foul Stetson liner the other day using Shout Advanced Gel Stain remover. I'm just hung up on the word perfect.

    Optimo was listed as PERFECT, what's this?

    Question isn't about a deal I understand 200 is a good price and I certainly agree. But the question Bart is about "Perfect". Tell the buyer what is wrong with a hat so there are no supprises. Thanks.

    Optimo was listed as PERFECT, what's this?

    There was a bunch of used Optimo hats on e-Bay. I bought one on a second chance offer. The hat is listed as being "Perfect" here are some pictures of my issues. BTW, the guy wanted to know nothing about this; he says that there was no staining in the hat when he sent it; is his comment to...

    [SOLD]FS Whippet Tagged 7-5/8 LO 23.5 inch.

    Sold. I have had luck in the past with old Stetsons in 7-5/8 being close to fitting my 7-3/4 head. On those hats I needed a slight strech. I got this Whippet today from Cookie and unfortunatly it is not fitting on my head like some of my other 7-5/8's do. I don't want to strech it, so...

    Ask a question, get an answer

    Q: Optimo I got an Optimo today, it was one of the many 7-5/8's that was listed recently on the bay. Said to be in perfect condition, but the liner has staining.:mad: My question is did anyone ever clean one of Grahams liners; will the printed Optimo hat logo in the crest hold up, or can...

    Your Opinions on this ribbon...

    OR Ribbon MV, I like the looks of both; but lean toward the brown. But like someone else said, getting a replacement thin ribbon from Optimo just might make it ! But if I had to go with one of your 2 choices, I'd go brown. Enjoy!
