Man oh man

Whatta lid!
Razz, if I hadn't JUST PURCHASED this very same hat (down to the size!) from Jimmy Pierce two weeks ago, I would be on this like white on rice.
Oh, I might still if someone else (hint, hint...save me from myself, my baser instincts... & Mrs. Blaine's wrath!) don't move quickly. As I have the briefest of other buisness to see to, I am walking away from my screen...walking away

Thanks to all that have sent a PM with praise for the hat.

Too New to PM, Alas

But keenly interested in increasing my collection of vintage Borsalino hats. This perhaps due to 10 years residence in Italy, much of it spent in nearby Piedmont, home to great wine if not fine hats. Accordingly, if this has not been snapped up at a staggering price, how might we proceed?

 

[Razzman]

Aldus, I believe you need 15 posts for PM privileges. The hat is still available. Do you have a personal email address? or would you rather wait for PM privliges? Reply to several more threads and you will have PM privileges.

 

[Aldus]

Thank You

Obliged Razzman. I'd rather not post my home email address, but more than happy if you can get it from the administrator. I'll try to post an other couple of pertinent messages elsewhere. Thanks.

I suppose I can try to find another couple of Borsalino pictures to admire.

Now, does some sort of magical transformation occur? Or do I have to wait for an actual human being to review my 15 posts and approve me for pm powers?

Okay, Post 16

Nothing happened, Razzman. I'm sorry to say. I'll check back tomorrow, and perhaps I'll be able to send you a pm with my email. Sorry to be using so much bandwidth on this. But then, being unreasonably keen and slightly obsessive about vintage hats is why I'm here.
