Can you explain why?
Yes. It's because western hats made after 1950 are a dime a dozen and more people want the fedoa version (the OR-style hat) than the raw brimmed, string ribboned western version of the 100. It's just a fact that the western-style 100 will go for less, even in the big sizes.
As to Majicpwr's hat. At size 7-1/4 I'd guess that he'll be able to get at least $200 for it. If it were an OR-style model, though, I'd guess he'd have gotten closer to $300.
I say this based on a long track record of ebay prices. Every 100 that comes up I bookmark to see where the prices go. Certainly there are times when they go for less or more, but what I am saying above is the average price.
I saw a size 7 western 100 barely get to $100 late last year, for instance. But a size 7 100 in the OR style went for $190.
