Borsalino Alessandria 7 1/8 grey $70 + ship

[buler]

This was a hat that a fellow lounger mentioned that was available at his local antique mall. Unfortunately there is a small (3/16") cut in the felt on the crown of the hat. The mall owner has offered to take the hat back, but I will be out shipping costs and she is certain that she'll have to "buy" the hat from the lady who sold it because the lady believes the hat was perfect. So to try to help everyone out I'm offering it for what I paid plus shipping. I paid $45 plus a $25 shipping/handling charge. So $70 + shipping takes it.

Depending on how you crease the hat, the cut in the felt does not show. It may also be something that could be repaired. There is also a stain on the crown that I've pictured and some dirt lines on the underside of the brim. You can see from the pics that overall this is a very nice hat. Its very lightweight and ultrasoft.

Please reply in this thread if you want it.

thanks

Wow, that was fast. I was out of town yesterday and just now became aware of this; pm sent to Buler. I am deeply embarrassed over having not seen that cut - I thought the hat was perfect. I knew there were some slight dust lines along the crease and a smudge here and there along the brim, but those should come out fairly easily.
