    Help with a Panama please

    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...

    Help with a Panama please

    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...

    Help with a Panama please

    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...

    Help with a Panama please

    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...

    Help with {date or identify} a hat please.....!

    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...

    Help with a Panama please

    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!!

    Help with a Panama please

    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).

    Help with a Panama please

    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...

    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???

    Hats in Jacksonville Florida

    Ditto! Was in there in July and had a similar experience. Don’t get me wrong, the owner was a nice guy! I just think his shop is in a tourist area and his prices reflect it. Although recently (very) I contacted the shop about reblocking a panama I’d found at a thrift store and was told that they...

    Thanks! Yes I've been in his shop but I thought his prices where a little high. I also called him recently about reblocking a hat I found at a thrift store (That story is in another thread) but said he only blocked HIS hats. I also wasn’t to happy with the quality of the work on some of his...

    Do you have a man room/study

    Although my current home doesn’t allow for a true “man cave” I do have an office that I share with my wife. When deciding on what went in the cave, my wife gave me a little more freedom to add things that I wasn’t allowed to have elsewhere in our home. This is where the dear mounts are, the...
