    The Dumbest Comment I Ever Heard

    Has nothing to do with hats but to get back to the original title of the thread... Yesterday I was locking my house up and headed to my car, wearing my suit and a fedora and my neighbor asked me, "Going out tonight?" That is the dumbest comment I've ever heard :P ... this week! ^_- Oh...

    Setting up house in the 1940s

    Well those floral knobs are really pretty...and I'm not personally a fan for floral patterns but *shrug* I like these. As for the glass yeah I know...they sell for around $50 out here and yeah its usually without hardware. Now that my doors are restored partially I'm going to go see a guy I know...

    Feathers in your hatbands?

    Heh, thanks for the swift responses. I was just wondering because one of my fedoras was dedicated to the brief Swing revival here in New Orleans and since that died off didnt know if it needed to be "saved" heh. Well I like the feathers (never said they had to be on the hat) so looks like...

    Feathers in your hatbands?

    What is the general opinion of everyone here on having the nice little tri-feather attached to the band? I actually like it...reminds me of the Big-Band era of Swing hehe

    Setting up house in the 1940s

    tips on pricing?

    Again, before doing any major things have them appraised and ask the same question. Most of the time it helps items but always take it to a professional first. Err on the side of caution with vintage... As for Sotheby's yes they charge...it says so on their page. And I'm pretty sure with a...

    Pocket Watch pics, finally

    Usually to diagnose a watch issue they dont charge, to repair it requires man-hours so they'll charge for that. However the appraisal value of a working watch in original condition is always higher than a nonworking one. Just make sure if you do decide to have it repaired that they use original...

    tips on pricing?

    Ah, well when pricing any item I plan on selling I usually take the item to an appraiser at a local auctioneer (look for ones with great reputations like Sotheby's) and have them appraise it. Thats usually a great way to get a good asking price. I'm lucky because one of Sotheby's appraisers...
