Churchill stingy for sale or (hopefully) trade

It's a grey Churchill Ltd. 7 1/2.

I like the look and feel of the hat, but got it based on jumping at an eBay auction with super fuzzy pics and an inaccurate description (was trying to find a grey hat before a wedding). The seller stated that it had a 2.5" brim, but, alas, it is only 2". Great for somebody, but not for me.

I kept it and have worn it a few times thinking I may get used to the 2" brim, but I have a large round face that just doesn't jive with this hat. The crown is 4.75-5" bashed with just a little taper. Brim is 2" with some variety of over-welted edge. It's grey with a black ribbon that I don't think is original to the hat. Interior is all black with gold logo and stamps.

I'm hoping to find another 7 1/2 head who is looking for a stingy brim and willing to trade something with a brim closer to 2.5". Any color. I paid around $100 for the hat at the time (six months ago).

Sorry these pics are from iPhone because the Nikon has a dead battery. These are fabulous compared to the pics I bought it based from :eusa_doh:
I'll take better ones if anyone is interested.

The hat on the right is a Moonstone Akubra, JUST FOR COLOR COMPARISON! I figured a lot of us have Moonstone Akubras, this Churchill hat is just a bit darker.

The only visible flaw is this small nick on the brim. I intentionally made it look more noticeable in this pic in the interest of honesty, but it does brush down to be almost unnoticeable.
