Is the vintage hat market dead?

The more details you provide the more interest you will garner. Size, dimensions, price, condition... etc

Yes people will buy those with verifiable history. I am like you going to sell my collection which I have branded boxes for. Stetson Sovereign, Dobbs Jet, Borsalino Alexandria for sale…. Soon. Where do I post them?

Looking forward to seeing them.

In most cases, the original box adds little to the value. It does, however, make them more desirable. I have several buyers ask that I not ship the original hat box so I can fit the hat in a smaller shipping box and save them $10-45 dollars. I’ll confess to doing the same thing on some auctions sites with high or undisclosed shipping prices.
