BCF Run - any interest?

[The Wingnut]

I ran through BCF tonight and there's a considerable amount of hats left over after Christmas. Many fur felt fedoras in a range of colors and brim sizes, whites, blacks, tans, even a deep rust. If anyone's looking for something, let me know. They're not great quality, but they'd make good beaters or projects. I'll need a little extra over the price, for shipping and my trouble. Most were around $16.

I'd be interested in a black one with the widest brim you could find. How do I get you the dough?

 

[The Wingnut]

Paypal is best. Let me know your size range.

Bear in mind I can't get exact with sizes, since I'm limited to what they've got, and these hats are such that they'll probably need modification or resizing to be up to Lounger standards.

White and rust eh? In what brim width? In BIG sizes?

Here are photos of what they've got. I haven't bought any hats yet, I took them while in the store.

Most of them have cloth sweatbands and no liners. The felt is very coarse. Some are pliable, most are stiff. They range between $12 and $16. I'll find out what it costs to ship.

Please note that I have annual tour days and a drill weekend from Wednesday night through Monday. The hats should still be there, as none seem to have sold since I was last there right after Christmas.

That's mostly dust, probably from being dropped on the floor. It'll probably come off with a brush easily.

what sizes do these range at?

I'm a 7 1.4

 

[The Wingnut]

Sizes run the gamut - they're marked SMLXL. Most are M or L. I'd put the small at about a size 7, medium at 7 1/8 - 7 1/2, large at 7 5/8 - up. There was one XL, I believe it was the light tan one.

Alright. What size and felt quality is the tan one with the corrugated ribbon?

JP,

I think that one was the XL of the bunch. Felt quality is pretty rough, as I mentioned before, 'badger's arse'.

I'm back home. If anyone is interested in these, let me know your size and which of the above you're interested in. If the size is close, I can spring for it and get started on shipping.

I'm probably going to go with a flat rate of around $12 for continental US & Canada. I have to find boxes and package them properly, and of course there's postage. If anyone has box source suggestions that I can do for cheap and has good experience with a particular shipping method, I'm listening.
