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

So, was it a member that tossed the big bucks for buler's Stetson 100? (There are two threads on it.)

Imagine if it was a 7 5/8 what it would've gone for....

Some recent larger-sized hats I passed on reluctantly, and all of which I think ended less than what they're probably worth:

A straw Dobbs that is larger than a 7 3/8 for only $44.95

A thin ribbon 7 7/8 Borsalino Allesandria for $66.43 (what the heck...?)

A very large-brimmed 7 5/8 - 7 3/4 Tonak for $61.00

A 7 5/8 J Peterman bowler for $78.00

A 7 3/4 black Dobbs for $37.00

A 7 5/8 black Knox for $24.99

I am the guilty one. My max snip bid of $383 made it by $1. I will be posting on the thin ribbon thread. I inventoried my hats yesterday 19 felts including 10 thin ribbons and one Mallory panama. I done buying for a while cross my heart swear.

Waltham Pocketwatch

From the auction:

A very nice Waltham 16 size pocketwatch in solid 14kt gold, the dial and couvette are signed for the John B. Stetson company, famous maker of western hats and leather goods, presented to an apprentice for Christmas 1905, the dial has about four very tight hair-line cracks that may wash out with an ultrasonic machine, the case measures 48mm in diameter not counting the stem or bow, the watch is running well and keeping time but may need a cleaning, the movement is signed Riverside and has a gold train and 17 jewels, a great watch for the Stetson collector or retailer.

Very cool. Wonder if a Lounger won it?

Cheers,
Tom

Tango Yankee, That is a fabulous pocketwatch. Thanks for posting.

 

[Tango Yankee]

It is indeed, Carter! I stumbled across the auction this morning. Wish I could have made a serious bid on it, but it was well over $200 when I found it an knew it would go a lot farther.

Cheers,
Tom
