    I have been searching and searching for an ID

    One of the pictures appears to possibly be showing a moth larva. To the left of the re-order tag and below the red liner fold sew line. I would check that ASAP! Given the amount of moth tracks and holes I would do some checking for those and eggs and take care of it immediately if...

    FLECHET FEDORA On Ebay

    Anyone know the history of that company? I have a couple of their hats I bought in the late 1980's. They weren't bad for the price back then.

    Stetson Sweat Stamps/ LOT XXXX

    I'm in love with that one. Sometimes cowboys kept hats they only wore on special occasions so they didn't get beat up. I'm always happy to see something that also wasn't found by those pesky flying critters.

    anyone experience with david morgan?

    Sorry I missed that you were not in the US. I think I would try to find out if there is a Europe distributor that can get it or try ordering from Australia.

    anyone experience with david morgan?

    If you have a brick and morter store that carries something you want I would try to support them whenever possible. Of course their prices will always be higher than online or discount outlets but unless it is ridiculously higher I would buy from them as often as possible otherwise such stores...

    anyone experience with david morgan?

    Thus far I have only bought one hat from them, an Adventurer when they had the stock of hats that differed from the usual speck and I liked it over the regular one. Totally positive experience. I can't imagine you would have any problems with them as a retailer. If they have a model you want...

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

    A 50's hat not in its original box..... Seller admits in the description the hats they are selling could be in the wrong box. One of those sellers who incorrectly dates (by many decades) a lot of things.

    The horror! The horror!

    The arguments about the economics of hat making/inventory stock makes a lot of sense and I'm sure you are correct that it is a huge factor in coming up with "products" like this. It's a one-size-fits-all as opposed to the typical option we get with most modern wool brimmed hats, that is...

    The horror! The horror!

    All it needs is advertising on it like the typical not sports team baseball cap.

    So who makes this abomination and are they having success selling it?

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

    Thanks for all the ideas and thoughts about this. So I didn't get back to the seller before they relisted it as a BIN and I remade my offer, they accepted for the same amount and now I'm waiting to receive it. While I did have some concerns about getting ripped off my larger concern was...

    I to have done the same thing with shipping/packing especially if the hat is a large brim/crown fedora or western and the shipping quote is really low implying a small priority box.

    Boater faction!

    Maybe he was thinking of those pictures you can find if you google "English school girls in boaters" and mixed it up with this one.

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

    You should PM the seller and ask them to how in their "expert" opinion they arrived at that price....

    So a lady called me a Pimp today....

    We live in the reality that the fashions and hats we like declined in popularity in part as a result of both a move to extreme and constant casualness in attire and a rejection of contemporary adult or parental dress. To wear the vintage fashions and/or hats today means we are now the...

    So a lady called me a Pimp today....

    I too have had more "nice hat" comments than the negative or stupid ones. She probably just didn't know that it's called a fedora.
