Stetson Fashion Collection 1940s Stratoliner Fur Felt Fedora Hat

If the information was so "limited" then it would have behooved you to make further inquiries rather than purchasing the hat to figure it out. You could have saved yourself a lot of trouble that way.

And surely as you have read, it was not just me that concluded that the new Stratoliner would not live up to the original.

Caveat emptor.

And oh, still a strawman fallacy, because nowhere in my post did I state or imply open crown height. Reading comprehension indeed....

I agree. Reading seems to have been the major problem during the entire dialogue.

Some of us are just risk takers & don't consider this trouble at all....good, spirited dialog is what hanging out in a Lounge is all about....

Taking the risk and not considering any of it trouble would mean to me a lot less accusations.

If you take this new Strat and ruin the block and push the crown all the way up, it also measures 5-1/2 inches. At least with my ruler from National Hatter's Supply from 1936.

Need to get me one of those & also the brim ruler you use to get to 2 1/2"....I'm sure those Hatter Supply tools were really calibrated in 1936...

Reading never seemed an issue getting my Master's degree in business but understanding marketing techniques didn't give me any trouble either.

If this amount of posting constitutes "no trouble," then I would hate to see what "trouble" looks like, especially considering you said your "last post" on the topic was about 4 pages ago.

Yes, you most certainly would hate it cause it ain't pretty. This is just banter, son. A pleasant diversion about something I am passionate about.

Indeed, passion overrides rationality and logic in this case.

You guys are trouble.

Normally on this forum, should I just select YELP, or YELP WITH QUOTE? I am not bitten. If you call that a bite, I guess my skin is rather thick. I only question the public manners, and degree of diplomacy in getting things accomplished. A complete refund to you, and we are still making you a replacement hat. We acknowledged and agreed that you should have never been shipped the one you got. Not even a public thank you from you, just your continued bantering. I felt sick about the hat you received, and was making good on it better than most any retailer would (free hat). Since you dislike the hat so much, can I just cancel your replacement and save my $$$. It seems pointless for me to be buying you a hat when you don't even like it. Even worse, buying you a hat, and receiving all of these childish posts. Yes, I am calling your posts childish, and you too.

Pleasant to whom?

A brief comment of no great consequence. ALL catalog publications that I have (many) from wholesalers and manufacturers and trade magazines pre-1960(don't have later ones) list Open Crown Specifications. Also open crown is the height of the body not how high you can poke it with a stick(not saying you necessarily did that, but some do). The spec listed was not confused with open so that isn't my point. A more spherical(tapered) open block will give a much lower front pinch than a more flat one with less shoulder radius of equal height spec.

WOW Indy... who would have thought it....

I think it best to close bar on this one now.
