    Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    Ebay may find out they are doing a "Netflix" or "New Coke!" Making a bad decision....and then rescinding it.

    Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    Regarding the apparent new ebay feature of deleting photos immediately: I just noticed that as well and man that burns me! They should be keeping them for at least the 60 days feedback/challenge period. Typical---raise fees and cut services/quality---that's just what has made corporations great!

    OTHER THAN eBAY Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    Anyone bid on the hats from the John Wayne collection on Heritage Auctions? The highest I saw went for around $119K. Most were in the tens of thousands range. There was a hat carrying case apparently used to carry hats for 60's-70's westerns that went for less than $400 (looks like it could...

    Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    Good point T Rick. I take that into consideration. Sometimes I get the impression the seller might be lazy and that's went I really get irritated, especially when they also only attach a few crappy pictures (or even just one or a picture of a box with a mystery hat, etc). If a seller is...

    Thanks for the additional suggestions. I'll try to get to examine the options before I make my choice.

    //BEGIN MY RANT I know what you mean! I'm a smaller size so the finding isn't a problem (though sometimes the price to win is...) but have after missing too many from not seeing until they are on this thread or a closed search have resorted to "deep-diving" through the listings (as well as...

    Source for replacement liners and sweatbands for Vintage Stetons?

    Thanks for your reply. I suppose there could be a concern on their part regarding counterfeiting by providing replacement materials though the acquisition of a few such items makes it an extremely low risk to them. I would think they would be more threatened by someone wanting them by the case...

    Source for replacement liners and sweatbands for Vintage Stetons?

    Thanks gentlemen for the suggestions. I hadn't thought that a Stetson dealer that does repairs would have those so I'll have to look into that. Regards!

    Source for replacement liners and sweatbands for Vintage Stetons?

    Howdy fellow hat fanatics (or whatever we call ourselves), Couldn't find anything via the search engine so here's my question: Like many of you I'm got hats acquired from various and sundry sources that need some help in the way of new liners and sweatbands. I imagine there is no where to get...

    A New Hat for Johnny Depp watchers to want.

    7 5/8 (a size too big for me), but that sure is a nice straw lid!

    A New Hat for Johnny Depp watchers to want.

    Maybe...though the brims on Darren's hats tended to be stingy. I need to track down some episodes and watch them as I haven't seen most of them since they originally aired in the 70's (I was young enough to find them scary....wonder if I still will).

    Did you get it? Would be better if it had a head and rattle attached!

    Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    Yeah, that's definitely a reasonable price for that hat! Don't see any size info posted. Hopefully it will fit, but I'm sure you can get a lot more if you resell it with the correct size info.

    Where's the slots for the beer cans on the "smokes" hat?

    Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    I'm not a big fan of wool (as most on here aren't--real fur is nicer), but I will admit to owning several Bailey wool hats (not this model though) and if it is like the ones I have it is well made hat and for a wool hat the felt is not bad. For a wool hat I think Bailey makes one of the best...
