Congrats!

I placed a bid on those at one point; I don't own a Cavanagh yet. I was hoping for that chance that everyone else might just forget. ;)

You know that section of your eBay homepage that tells you how much you spent this month? Well, I discovered it the other day, and let's just say it influenced my decision to bid any higher.

Looking forward to seeing the results.

I was bidding for the Panama just don't know enough with the pictures posted to bid higher. I know Cavanagh are nice hats but this one wasn’t my style
I also look forward to see more about this hats

Scott, There are some members who are hatters in the Pacific NW. Art Fawcett (OR) comes to mind. I believe there are one or two more located in WA.

Rick Blaine posted this in another thread a couple of years ago.

"A few:

North Valley Hat Co. in OR
Mike the Hatter in Ohio
Jimmy Pierce in Tx
Jackson Hole Hat Co. in WY
Worth & Worth in NYC
Arizona Hatters' in, uh, AZ
Peter Bros. in TX
... and lotsa others, I am sure. Google "hat repair" or "hat cleaning" or "Hat renovation" you will turn 'em up."

Also our very own TonyB in Olympia

This one is pretty great too.[/URL] I've never seen this liner, and that's a heck of a wide sweat.

I tried bidding on this one at the last moment. When I did, I got back a message telling me that the next bid would go over the BIN amount and that I should go back and use the BIN. Odd. I wasn't anywhere near the BIN amount in my bid. When I looked back at it, the bidding had ended and was still showing the amount that was up when I bid. [huh]

I won this Knox. If I sniped anyone on here, I respectfully apologize. I hope this is nice and there are no surprises, since I am always skeptical of blurry pics.

You sniped me by three bucks. Nice win.

Thanks. Sorry 'bout that. The joke may be on me since most of the "fidora" pics were blurry. They probably photoshopped the moth nips out!!!

Congrats Jabos ! I too was watching this one and decided not to bid because it didn't look like it had a Cavanagh edge. I'll be curious how you like it when you get it.

No prob. The seller has several other "fidoras" for sale. Picked them up at estate sales.

I was the other bidder. They had some as yet unknown but probably near the "Buy it Now" reserve. Waiting to hear from the seller.

Just won this nice old boater tonight on eBay. If the seller's measurements are accurate, there's a chance it might fit - but fit is always a bit dicey with the stiffness of boaters. Cheap enough at 20 bucks to take the chance.

Alas, it's another hat I won't actually get my hands on for awhile because the seller wouldn't ship to Canadia so I'm having it sent to my daughter in upstate NewYork whom I'll be visiting in early May. I've been looking a long time for just the right vintage boater. I can wait a little longer.

I reigned supreme for five days with the bid at $24.00 on this one, until the last few minutes when someone (I know it was one of you!!) tried to overthrow me.... but I sniped it back. :p Hey, Something had to go right for me this weekend.
