Congrats!Victory!
In case any of you happened to see those Allen Edmonds I had listed in the classified for $55...
I was able to sell them on eBay for $81!! Very excellent! Best sale I've ever completed on eBay.

My odd Stetson 7X clear beaver homburg arrived today, much better looking than in the ebay pictures... more detail on the new hat thread.
At those prices I can't compete, so...unless I stumble across a Whippet at the local Goodwill/thrift shop, I might never own one.

sort of a Casual look to this Stetson, but it's not bona fide (brim is narrow, too)
I've got my eye on a hat stretcher like that, thinking that I'll be able to buy even smaller hats and make them fit my already small head, then I wouldn't have to compete with all you big heads!!!

The Borsalino Alessandria has similar proportions to an Open Road but has a different feel, both to the felt and to the fit. I would describe it as "softer." Mine is a later vintage than this one I - seventies, probably. This one appears to be well watched and headed up there pricewise. They do appear fairly often - rarely selling (in very good condition) under $160 and often over $200. You might consider asking the seller for better photos of the inside and to confirm that the sweatband stitching is intact and tight... I've found this to be a problem area on non-reeded Borsos. They are wonderful hats... good luck with the auction!
Also the ended up with additional taper to it.
