Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

Ahhh! Now I get the inside joke. OK, so we have one guy with a head the size of a ten-year-old's! LOL There's always gotta be one, right??

Yeah, but it's bigger on the inside than on the outside.

Mr.Sommerset; I ask you kindly to take the focus of your conversation off the smaller sized hat sized folks, like me, and positively interact with the market sellers. Attempting to make others feel bad so that you may feel better about not finding your prized hat in your size is not admirable and un-called for.

Good day, small hat sized Eric -

Mr. Sommerset's manner is familiar. His pet peeves have appeared in these parts under several other guises.

I'm a 6 7/8 and I love it if someone gets peeved because I can snipe and score hats for a song because of my head size oh well so be it ! I'm sure it also works against me in other realms but so be it that's life . All the Best Fashion Frank

I wear 7 or 71/8 and it works both for and against. Sure I can often find good deals, but is is also hard to get a good price when selling.

And of course, customs are the same price for everyone!

Hey Frank, how are you doing?

Eric. You've always been kind, considerate, complimentary, encouraging and extremely well spoken in your advice and comments. Your hat size is meaningless in the context of what you contribute here. Why is it even brought up...?

I can't see how you thought I was attacking you, but I want you to know I wasn't. In fact, I didn't know of your hat size until now. Also, I made no attempt to make someone feel bad for their hat size. My post was clearly about sellers who post auctions at crazy prices without having done any research first. But regardless, if I upset you I certainly didn't mean to.

I brought it up as a reaction to the sentences I quoted. Sentences I found very unwise.

It's so easy to pull a joke on an anonymous segment of people. Such a joke often seems a lot different, when a familiar face is associated with it ... a lot more primitive if you will. We're talking about real people - not random bowls of DNA.

Those were my thoughts when I brought Eric up as a living example of a very much existing group of real people

Ooooo. I also have a bad back, Frankie (and my front's no bargain, either!) Take care, my friend! The ergonomically-designed seats in that Model A should help, too!!


As a matter of high-standing here, around the Lounge and globally, Eric is without equal. No brag; Just fact. The man packs a punch, too!

Nothing good on Ebay in my size for at least a couple of months..

 

[Frunobulax]

OK, I know I'm channeling The Hat Enabler, here. And I know not everybody is into the European hats, but if I was a. feeling more adventurous and/or b. thought I could squeeze my noggin into this, I'd be all over it!

Steve would know better than I, but I believe it likely came out of the Tonak factory. The few of those I have, albeit modern ones, fit a little large on me.

With the warm weather fast approaching I was looking for a decent straw hat I wouldn't be afraid to get messy.

This D Bar J Western Panama should do the trick: http://r.ebay.com/eLNFfo
