ScottF said:I don't get this - I saw one of these in my size go for around $212 a couple of weeks ago. I watched it out of curiosity, but the last thing I would want would be people seeing me in such a thing - I get 'Indy' comments enough when I'm wearing a light-colored Open Road clone and a black jacket. I can't imagine if I put one of these things on.
Aside - went I bought my brown stetson, I was at the register with a "Temple" model. The salesman asked me if I had seen the movie. I put 2 and 2 together and put the hat back, replacing it with a slightly different model with a thinner ribbon. I've since found that I was being extremely naive - almost ANY wide-brimmed fedora signifies Indiana Jones to most people [huh] In any event, when I wore the non-Temple Stetson home, my gf asked me where my bullship was
I get this all the time & I don't have anything that closely resembles a HJ fedora. Being in the deep South, I always say this is the style of hat Hank Williams SENIOR wore & Indiana Jones wished he had a hat with as much style!

Went ahead last night and bought this Adam on the $100 "Buy-it-now" price (plus $15 shipping). Looks like the hat is in good shape. From the research I had done and from lessons learned on previous auctions, it seemed to me this hat would go for at least that much. Also, the minimum bid was $49.99. Seemed to me that someone was going to snag it for $100, and I've wanted a vintage brown hat for a while. [huh]
Thoughts?
