No, you're not. And there are marathons all the time.

Actually, I have all the DVDs. I will look for it. Thank you, Jim. It will be fun.

P.S. It's father's day in Mexico, so, being a father, and being a Mexican, happy father's day to me. [emoji4]

Some eBay sellers are like that, sad to say. Keep searchig, JJ, there are more out there.

I present to you, the most useless ebay seller.

Look at their response. I snidely responded, if you want to make a sale, you may want to answer basic questions about the item, especially if it isn't included in the description.

This means they know less than you do about hats. Folks sell things on eBay they know nothing about, and don't do basic research. So this seller has no idea how to answer your questions, and may not even understand some of what you are asking.

Some of the best deals come from sellers who don’t know anything about what they are selling. I’ve purchased several “wool” hats that are obviously fur felt. I’ve bought a few “bowlers/derbies” that were in fact open crown fedoras. The 1950s Playboy I recently purchased was listed as being wool and from the ‘70s. These poorly educated sellers are a knowledgeable shopper’s best friends.

Don't fight them. Embrace them! Arrogant ignoramouses are a gift sometimes.

Here's a bit of a puzzler. This Borsalino Savoy was listed with a starting bid of $99,99. A couple of days later suddenly the starting bid was increased to $149,99. And a couple of days later it was gone altogether, because of a "fault in the listing". Something is going on, but I don't know what it is. Gorgeous hat though.

Sounds like someone made them an offer they couldn't refuse.

I do hope someone around these parts bought this
