    Question about logging in to the site. Not a big deal just wondering what I'm doing wrong or something I'm not doing that i should be doing. When I first arrive on the site I usually log in and then look around various threads. The first comment I attempt to make, (not every time but 95%...

    when do you guys wear a panama?

    I'm in northeast Florida. riding the "Northeast Florida Weather Roller Coaster" changing hats by the weather temp is like doing a juggleing act with one hat on the head 3 in the air and one in each hand in constant rotation.... 30 - 40 degree temp changes could be from day to day or even...

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

    You might also consider the lack of bidding on a better hat because of ebay's bogus "one click" tactic. what's the point in bidding and desiring a better hat on ebay when your bid can be dashed with one click......don't even need to have enough engery to enter a bid and submit it.....just one...

    The BORSALINO BROTHERHOOD

    Classic ebay seller response to questions about item for sale....... seller email response: "I sold this hat several weeks ago to a guy who didn't realize until after he had bought it that it is SMALL. But I boxed it up thinking he had bought it. So he backed out 10 days later and the...

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

    Shouldn't be surprised. Shoddy products, lousy, inept service, 'not my fault' attitude, and high prices has become the way of life in America.....the norm, not the exception. Even, my newspaper delivery guy thinks dropping the paper at the street curb is worthy of a Christmas bonus...

    Anyone ever heard of Artel hats? New company or old hat company? if so what type of hats did or do they produce? I saw a photo of a "Artel" flat hat, outside looked kind of like a newer style, but the lining, looked to be more of a older style.
