I had a look at the brand name hats on display in the window. I reckon 1500DKK (approx. 295USD) would be for one of his cheap hats.
I didn't have a look inside :)
I thought i would bump this thread, since I have recently made a purchase from hatshopping.com and had a very different experience.
I didn't have any trouble with regards to communication. I was promtly e-mailed an order confirmation, and was also advised when the order was a week delayed and...

Thanks guys!
Indycop: I started by trying to do a diamond crease as shown in Dinerman's video in the hat creases thread. From there I kept fiddling with it (lowering the crown more and more and smoothing things out) until it looked right in the mirror.

Hello everyone!
My first proper hat arrived this morning (yay!). It's a grey Akubra Federation, which I ordered after reading the many good reports on it from users on this forum. It was delivered from Oz in only five days -- that's what I call fast!
Just out of the box:
