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

[tinmanzzz]

We Wonder Why We get upset with ebay.....

I just looked at a Stetson hat whose Header claimed it was a 7 5/8s
The Body of the add called it a 7 1/8
the picture showed it to be a 7 3/8's

So are you going to believe me or your lying eyes

SO it's a UNIVERSAL sized hat!

Somebody got an amazing deal Here. I'll bet this turns out to be a great hat, anyone here happen to get it? [huh]


Here's another Gorgeous hat. I'll bet some lucky large head grabbed this one and ther're gonna be pleasantly surprised when it arrives. :eusa_clap This one has JTL written all over it.

The Kellner was interesting but a 4 3/4" crown and 2" brim didn't work for me.

Unless there's such a thing as a front bow, I think, uh... it was creased wrong. Haha.

Just won this Gaucho hat not sure what I'm going to do with it yet!

 

[portolan]

I bid and bid on that Kellner, of course

I didn't get it. Have bought three on the bay lately, two Stetsons and a Sunbody!

 

[Bassman]

I was outbid on that Kellner too.

You could grow a little moustache, go to California and fight the tyrrany and injustice of Captain Monastario and his hapless toadie Sgt. Miguel Demetrio Lopez Velasquez Garcia.

I'm annoyed that I missed out on this black beaver 7 3/4 Churchill. Got caught up in a movie. I was prepared to pay more than that. Ah well.

Reminds me of something SRV would wear. [huh]

This kind of thing pops up every now and then.

It sort of looks like a hat the flamenco dancers would wear in Spain also known as the Cordoban hat.

Just a guess though. Anybody else have any ideas?

Cheers!

Reminds me of this old M. Gonzalez Jerez

 

[RobFedoraField]

I don't know whether no one else was watching, but I was the only bidder on this one, and the shipping is more than the $9.99 purchase!

If I would have seen that I'd given you a little competition, it seems to be such a challange to find a light grey / silver hat in the 2.5 - 3" brim range. happy wearing.

Lounge buzz?

flamboyant ribbons seem to be the style this month.

Same estate, same hat but different brim size...

I went all in on this one as I won an earlier auction from same seller, same estate & same initials/owner of the hat. This one has a stated 3" brim & is 7 5/8 Long Oval where the other was 2 5/8" brim & 7 5/8 regular. Hope it is close to the shape as the first. I know the sweatband has more wear from sale description. I just delayed buying a custom or any more hats for quite a while...a long while!

That's a very nice OR, gtdean. I was hoping one of the gentlemen-of-larger-noggins here won it.

I won this Borsalino last night. Unfortunately, the seller did not have the liner that would have originally been included but I'm glad to be the winner.

Lounge buzz?

I was tempted but there looked to be quite a lot of wear at the top front of the crown where the pinch is, so thought I'll sit back and save my (fairly worthless) UK pounds...

Carter, are you sure that one came with a liner.[huh]

I have another one of these Borsalino folding hats. In the box are the hat with matching ribbbon, a detached liner, and a detached sweatband. Am I sure that every one came with a liner? No, I'm not.
