Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest
Yeah, I went to his website. Willing to bet that the reserve on the hat is somewhere around $5k so he doesn't have to sell it. He makes comments that he had to fight with eBay to keep using this tactic of tearing down the competition. While I am sure it draws the curious, my own reaction was...- marvelgoose

Vintage hat?
Depends on what you call Vintage. Most people would call a 50 year old hat from the 60's vintage, but I believe most of the collectors in here consider true vintage from 1959 and back- marvelgoose

Let the record show that the hat customer went from an all Stetson selection to including two hats from a hat store located a day in the future with a shipping cost of $30. Style matters. And the timeless hat styles sell. If I were Akubra, I'd be putting pressure on my distributor to sell...- marvelgoose

Want to Trade my Knox Challenger for your hat?
I have a wide face. That makes smaller brims problematic for me. Not having a fedora hat store within 600 miles, I found this out by my self-education on ebay. I just bought hats of different dimensions, now its time to move them on. This 50-60's Knox Challenger has a lovely grey felt with...- marvelgoose

Hat comparison Help
They've been making the Stylemaster for a long time. I saw one for sale on OFAS that was from the 50's. The bash is a shallow teardrop and it does not have a tight pinch as that is more pleasing on more faces. There is a thread on rebashing the Stylemaster, but it wasn't really necessary IMHO...- marvelgoose

They will want you to be happy, but they will also work with you on the phone to get something that should work. They do this all the time. What you do is actually measure your head with a measuring tape. Run it one inch above your eyebrows and just above your ears. Note measurements in...- marvelgoose

I maintain a list of Hat stores here and I don't have Heimie's. Could I have an address, phone, and website for the place? Also, the Margate is too limited for your needs so you should buy it first. Wear it with everything ... including suits with which it clashes and looks horrible. Your...- marvelgoose
