That Stetson casual would sure look good on me! My in box is empty and waiting!
Easter sale! 20% off any unsold items above.
The sale is only good on items purchased today (with payment sent by paypal today) and only on the items listed above.
I'll try to list a few more items today, but they will NOT be part of the Easter sale.

10. Royal DeLuxe Stetson Casual, 7 1/2 (and fits like one) - $150
Cleaned and blocked by Optimo soon after I purchased it, this is a rare bird. As is evident by the Stetson Casual thread linked above, there aren't many Casuals, and the ones that do exist are quite varied. The felt is free of moth divots but, as can be seen in the photos, there is a storage ring (?) mark that did not come out with the cleaning. This is not, as some have suggested, a stain from the sweatband, as the ring reaches somewhat higher than the sweat. I've considered having a wide ribbon installed to hide the ring, but I'm an original-condition kind of guy. The original red liner was re-sewn by Optimo, but the Stetson logo has nearly faded away.
Aside from the ring, the felt is wonderful. It's very soft and pliable. The sweat is soft and supple. This is, by far, the most comfortable hat that will be for sale in this thread.

Before adding anything else, I want to see if there's anything else we can do here.
Final sale on these items. Final, as in there will be no further reductions and they will be pulled from sale soon and I'm not bothering with ebay.
25% off any one item
OR
Buy any two items and get half off the less expensive item. This does apply to hats, but both hats will be shipped in the same box.
Also, for those who are lurking but are interested in purchasing anything, I've set up a yahoo email account solely to deal with stalkers such as you. You can reach me at leftyhats at yahoo [dot] com
THAT'S NOT THE EMAIL CONNECTED WITH MY PAYPAL ACCOUNT.
For now, this is only good for non-members in the continental US, and not my many Nigerian uncles.

If for ANY reason my wonderful friend Cookie is not able to complete a transaction with you for the Milan, PLEASE do let me know, I would be willing to sharply make a purchase of that Milan. I do really hope Cookie is able to complete a business venture with you on it, as I know as fine a fellow that he is, would give your Milan a very well cared for a cozy place to reside. Be that as it may, I too, would LOVE to own a nice Milan (or two)....lol@
Thanks, Buler. When I move from hat related items to a few vintage clothing items, I think I might have to start a second thread - and even that causes me internet grief.
Thanks, Tom. I hope you enjoy it.

I bet the faint ring on that Stetson Casual would fade away with a goodly amount of sun exposure.

I just received the Lee Royal and it is a very nice looking hat in mint condition and shipped with care. I am looking forward to taking it afield.
