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

[bolthead]

very nice....

Hope this photo is good. Love this hat. It wasn't a steal but I've been looking for one for a long time:

I believe I had a bid in on that one.....Congrats. :eusa_clap

These just ended. I think there were four in all. Unfortunately they were all tiny (6-5/8 to 6-7/8), but they're very interesting, unusual hats.

Two were perforated, two were windowpane. I think either would be interesting to see in a modern custom

 

[bolthead]

Funny you should mention that DM......

I just won one of those perforated Biltmores just a few minutes ago.

Here's the link.......Perforated Biltmore

I can't wait to see this Lid. :eusa_clap

Bolt, be sure to post a pic of this hat when you get it. I think it will look sharp on you.

Film Noir,

That is the Coolest hatbox! And of course the Borsy's a beauty too. Had it been my size, you'd've paid more. Congrats!

 

[bolthead]

Thanks bolthead. Hope you find another one to bid on. They're an interesting hat.

I already have a "Pocket" Borso, but it's not the same as the Rollup, but I'll find one.


By the way.....that is a great looking Panama you just scored there Tinner.

A 7 3/4 Knox black stingy for dirt cheap. It's not mine.

Complete gamble on this one ... probably wool and too small ... but it sure looks pretty for $ 9.50

"This auction features a derby style hat that insider label states "FIELDCRAFT" "The Store for Men Marshall Field & Company Chicago" The inside band is marked "Marshall Field & Company" No size is listed, but the circumfence of the hat is just over 21" This hat is in good condition and comes in a "Champ Hats" box. Box is in fair/good condition."

Looks like a never-bashed fedora to me, but the image quality is a bit lacking.

We'll see!!!

HOW 2 GO BROKE SELLING ON EBAY !!!!!!

This Purchase makes me believe that the US Government is currently directing Sales on eBay.
I purchased this 5X Stetson (made by Biltmore??) for $17.05 plus $12 Shipping

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=280285453574&ssPageName=STRK:MEWN:IT&ih=018

The seller boxed the Hat & box in a LARGER BOX and shipped it priorty mail

Shipping cost $40.55
Net profit negitive $11.50......
Maybe, they are working towards a bail out plan

 

[HamletJSD]

That almost needs a new thread tinmanz, "Dumbest eBay-ers Ever," or something to that effect.

I also need to keep my tongue in check before that seller turns up to be some other classy gent from the lounge who recognized your handle and did you well...
