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

[Michael R.]

Wow, definitely one of my dream hats! I'm a 7-1/4 though so I would have never gone that high for this one... but for those of you who wear a little bigger size.... maybe the poor man's version....

The ad says 7-3/8th but the picture is showing the remnants of a tag that looks like it says 7-1/2?

Man I am watching that one . Best not to post active auctions , someone might want the hat .

gripe here....

why does no one on Ebay understand how to put a hat in a box?

Is it really that difficult of a concept?

This image really messed with me at first glance. What does the hat look like out of its box that is apparently profoundly foreign?

it's unbelievable how often I see this ...

I mean ... to take the insert out ... put the hat in the box brim down ... then put the insert over the hat ... ?

why would that ever seem logical ?

True, but at least he's asking what it's worth.

That’s a valid point but did you read the description?

“This is a Rare find my great uncle is Navajo wore this hat proudly he is 102 decided someone should enjoy this hat he took all his Military earnings to purchase this Hat Great memoribillia !!!!!!”

 

[Nathaniel Finley]

Although to be fair, she is selling a bunch of Navajo stuff, so maybe she just doesn’t know anything about hats and is just repeating what somebody told her.

Here’s an “authentic vintage hand made Scalia cowboy hat” on offer from her. (Sorry, I don’t mean to poke fun but I can’t stop giggling. Are Scalas handmade?)

Well, at least it was in a box. The last hat I bought on ebay came in a Priority Mail envelope.
