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

[Rick Blaine]

Well done & THANK YOU!!!

Very nice combo. Would've had to buy if it were still there in the a.m. To WHOM SO EVER snapped it up, my marriage thanks you! lol.

I have had a similar , though later, Stetson Western Royal (?Royal Western?). and it was quite a nice hat. Killer score!

Nice, big Borso for a great price

That ain't no 50's Stetson -- in fact, looks to me like something post-1970...

Exotic French pleated and stitched.

Described as Oxford Blue Velour and 30's-possible- but will wait until its in hand.

 

[Lefty]

It looks like another winner. :eusa_clap

Could be a good one, looks fuzzy.

Glad to see you were finally able to get it.

I got a new 20X Stetson Bentree paper straw hat today on Ebay for $32 including shipping:

 

[The Wiser Hatter]

I think they need to add more X's on the sweat ban.

 

[fmw]

I've seen 5000X shantung hats. I don't think they print all those X's on the sweat band, however. I have seen 50 X's printed on the sweat band. That should give the owner some comfort, huh?

 

[fmw]

Apparently, I was mistaken.

 

[Lefty]

It's mahogany paper coated with a plastic made of melted collector's edition Barbies and tears.

LOL Now my stomach is cramping up on me...

I'll have you know that the Professional Auction Loser just pulled down the 7 1/8. Obviously the competition was unaware of my identity.

Vintage LEE BON VOYAGE Rollable Hat in BOX

I won this last night. It seems I had no competition from any other bidders. Its a size 6 7/8, but some time on the stretcher should get this baby up to a size 7. I just thought it was cool that the hat came with the original canister. I know that the canister says 6 3/4, but Im pretty confident that the canister was from the same era as the hat even if it was from a different sized hat. The color appears to be a green heather. I can't wait to have it in my hands.
