That was the original maker for the hat...the Real McCoy
M_Jones said:It was also from 1982-one year after Raiders came out. For a lot of folks this hat is the closest they will get to an actual Raiders of the Lost Ark fedora. I can see why this one went so high.
Saying that, this hat looks nothing like the Raiders hat. Still if the price was right I would have bid on it.....

Saw that one. Far too small for me.Garrett said:Just won this Borsalino Marque Grand Luxe in a beautiful camel color. This marks the 3rd Grand Luxe I've come across. Portolan now owns one of them. Great hats. Thanks to Baron Kurtz and Dinerman for introducing me to these gems.

Lefty said:That seller has got to be disappointed, after listing the hat for $99 the first time around. Great score!
Garrett said:The seller listed it for $149.99 initially, then $99, and finally $9.99 - third times a charm for me but in his case it was 3 strikes you're out. From the seller standpoint I would be supremely disappointed but i think the $20 shipping price tag fended other people off, hence the low price.
