Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest
I have never had to wait more than 72 hrs. & it made me anxious. But as ePay says seven days B4 you can file a nonpayment complaint (still, I think), give 'em seven.

felt,straw,and,palm leaf hats
Me too. Palm hats are HOT, heavy, cheap & disposable. Cross them from your list.

On a lighter note Just got this Vintage Christy's foldable, crushable, packable fur felt. the brim is about 1/8" inside my limit at 2 1/4", but I am trying to expand, eh? Looks like a bit of a stretch w/ some brushing & lexol should bring this 'un back. Hope so anyway.- Rick Blaine

Ask a question, get an answer
Straw Hat Stiffener? Is it just premature senility or do I remember a Scout, Bickmore or Kahl straw hat stiffener? All I seem to find is the felt sort. :mad:- Rick Blaine

WTB: Black Open Road, 7-1/4 or 3/8
About 1/2 way down the page. They claim to have 'em. (I have never done biz. w/ these folks but I do have a pending order I am waiting on...FWIW) As does Del Monico As well as Jackson's. All this took me about 360 seconds on Google. Check it out!- Rick Blaine
