Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest
Not me. Someone scooped the hat by offering the seller $60 and the auction was changed to BIN for him/her. Nice hat, but I am fairly certain it is missing its original liner as the seller said the crown does not have a sticker or printed logo. -
