If you read the entire post you would have noticed that the host I mentioned does offer a shopping cart feature that could be activated to sell items directly to customers. My friend didn’t need such a feature due to the nature of her merchandise. Even if the cart feature doubled the monthly...

Bob, I spoke with my friend about her web site. She pays about $50 a month for the site plus $25 a year for the address. She built it herself with the provider’s software (the use of which is free). She doesn’t have a shopping cart feature but says one can be added if desired. Her site is...

Let me guess, you are hitting Sam's Club right???? Well, I'm off on Monday and I only live about a mile from Sam's so that would be great!!! I'll shoot you my cell in a PM (IF i'm allowed).....Thanks:eusa_clap

Sorry Bob, hope I didn't hurt your feelings. The consensus seems to be that yea, your web site does need some work but you are the go to guy when it comes to the value/quality ratio. You know, I have a friend that bakes and puts together wedding cakes here in Jax. I know she did her own website...

Thanks for the info!!! I just got a message from another forum member that lives here in Jax that is willing to show me his hats and I'm hoping to see a panama from Bob in his collection. I know that I don't need the "$30,000" hat. Mostly, I wear a hat to protect my bald noggin from the sun...

I'd like to take you up on that offer!!! Yes, I'm in Jax I actually live in the Argyle area. Do you have any panamas from Bob??

If you read the add for the moose river hat in the LLB catalog it speaks of the current hats being blocked on the "Original" Moose river hat blocks. I assume that, at some time in the past, LLB offered the hat, then discontinued it, and now offeres it again. I've been looking at this hat for...

I think you are right. I didn't get a chance to check it out today but I've got a few hours tomorrow to run buy. Hat blocking by hand is such a dying art and it's a shame. Although I'm only in my late 30's I can still remember the men's store in down town Palatka that could handle most of your...

Did you have it blocked in the States or down there? If down there, how did you feel the result was? Oh, and was the edge back woven or sewn over?? Thanks!!

I think I'm going to do just that. I guess I need to call or e-mail him and discuss this. I just don't feel comfortable with his on line ordering since there isn't a way to detail my specific requests (Band color and size...Ect).

Thanks! I'm leaning more towards Bob but his web site just didn't seem too great. Since you have purchased from him before, how did the transaction go? I'm sorta "hands on." when it comes to spending $250ish for a hat. I'd want to speak with the hatter to make sure it blocked to my...

Anyone have any ideas about the these two vendors???? Thanks

Thanks, I might do that....I did speak with a friend of mine that said there was a western wear store on Blanding in O.P. that he thought did some hat work.....I'll try and check it out this weekend and post something

Did you have any work done by the guy in Ga? If so, where you happy with it, was the cost resonable, where in Ga is he located, and finally, if you where happy with the work and cost, could you shoot me his number???
