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

[DanielJones]

Well Ive been searching for an "open road" type hat for Texas, and I just won it from ebay. I cant wait to get the box in and actually hold it in my hands. Its not vintage, but for the price, its pretty hard to beat. Lucky for me, no one has ever heard of "BORSALINA." LOL. The retail price on this hat is between $285 and $310

Borsalina... that's the ladies model, Josh. 8^) a steal!

You know you will have to pay up to the Devil at some point for this hat. LOL

LOL! Nice detective work!

Great find Josh, can't wait to see it on your head!

For some reason Josh... I believe that hat will fit right in at FedoraFest!!!

I'll bet the microcephalics get all the cute girls too!
Great score. I have two of these & they are as light as a butterflies' wing and pure pleasure to wear. Twenty bucks! #*&_*&%%^$! :eusa_doh:

Thank you everyone!!! I still cant believe that I was lucky enough to find this one. For $20 bucks nowadays, I cant even buy 3 meals at McDonalds, let alone a hat that will probably last me 30 years if I treat it right. Its a bigger brim than I usually like. The biggest brim that I usually wear is 2 1/2, but I do have a couple 2 3/4 inch brims in my collection too. I'm sure I will like it. I can't wait to get the hat so I can put some noggin' shots on the Lounge, and till I get to wear this hat in TEXAS!!!!! Rusty, now I just have to find a pair of overalls, and I should be set for FedoraFest.

A wonder what caused the lights to blink and the horn to sound must be another Whippet on eBay. I just enjoy watching the price go up.
