I remember a few years back Whippets were selling for $700 or better,that's just nuts.But I have a 7 3/8 if someone offered that kind of money I would be tempted.
no doubt ... if that OPS got nearly $700 my Vita Felt should pull over a GGot me to thinking about selling mine.

Absolutely gorgeous hat. 3X in a 7 1/8. Much nicer than a Whippet, but since it didn't carry that name, it went for much less. It's an interesting phenomenon that they go for such ridiculous prices just because they say "Whippet."
Hell, I'm half scared to wear mine out of the house, as it's "value" dwarfs everything else in my wardrobe, including my wedding ring!

First world problems...I've owned three Whippets and ended up selling all of them. A 40's 3X Stetson is a nicer hat in my humble estimation. And the right 50's Borsalinos are even better. But, hey, I'm not complaining.

it's like the 1950's Zildjian K cymbals ... I've heard plenty of better sounding cymbals but for some reason everyone wants those old stamp Ks and they pay out the nose for them.
same with 60's Gretsch drum kits ... the hardware is absolutely terrible on them ... but people remortgage their houses to buy them.
that being said ... I have an early 40s Vita Felt Whippet that I got from you quite some time ago and it is one of my many prized possessions
On my short list of coveted wants.Yeah. Those Vita-Felts have a special feel to them. You'll see soon enough!
they are definitely different ... I now own 6 Vita Felt Stetsons and I can't really put my finger on what exactly it is that is special ... but there is indeed something specialOn my short list of coveted wants.

for now anywayYou can reach out and own it without having to remortgage the house.
Hmmm....did the buyer sober up snd realize it wasn't $67.70 he bid?
