[zetwal]

I think this is a wonderful Homburg -

Nice hat, and an even better tactic: throw enough different hat-related terms in the title, and it's bound to show up on at least a few people's searches!

By the way, is it now yours?

Same as $60 felt ...

You're probably right about the fetish business, zetwal.

I should just get over it.


:whistling

This hat looked fun, and it was certainly a good price.
Kinda makes me wish I had bid.

How did I miss that one? It reminds me of a Lee Adventure.

BARBISIO ITALIAN TEJIDO A MANO STRAW HAT SIZE 7 1/8

Well, I kinda needed a new straw for summer. The seller wanted $75 BIN for what looks to me like a rather late model S. American Barbisio. I offered $19 and he took it. I've been burned on a number of ebay straws over the years so I hope this one turns out OK.

That is some impressive bargaining.

I'm hoping this one pans out. Nice looking though.

The sweat liner was no afterthought. This is a well designed and well made hat!

The shipping sounds funky though.

"Shipping/Handling to the U.S.A. is $14.95 by Small Packet Air Mail."

What? Some sort of vacuum bag? lol

That was $10.00 felt at one time....

Bid on this one but got sniped at the end. Looks nice.

Lots of good stuff has been going around.

killer Stetson Gold Medal, 7 1/2

beautiful Glen Royal bowler, shipped for $21

7 1/2 7xCB OR for under $120 shipped!!! All of you big heads complaining about not having a great hat really missed the boat on this one. It just doesn't get any better.

I can't even tell if it's felt or straw, but it looks to be worth the $50.

Portis crushable Toss-Up - very cool

very nice Mossant, 7 3/8

I snagged the Portis Toss-Up

 

[Lefty]

I thought for sure that it was RLK. He gets all the best stuff in that size. Congrats on such a great hat. :eusa_clap :eusa_clap

Don't I know it!

 

[Lefty]

7 1/8 Strat

7 1/8 Stetson 100 with case

Those and the 7xCB have gone for less than the cost of one Whippet!

I was too busy mounting Monteagle photos and forgot to come back to it. Congratulations! I did get the Mossant however.

Wow and with matching stains to boot...when will the madness end?? Meanwhile vintage Knox and Dobbs 20s can't crack $100?? Makes me wish I had a closet full of "fab" and "minty" Whippets...maybe then I could afford to buy a brand new Optimo!!lol

A little fox piss on top of the ears* never hurt nobody and dogs love it!

"Come!"

"Good dog."

"Sit."

"Good girl!"

'Just a little dab L doo ya' !
