Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

[Randall Renshaw]

Another victory today.
A powder blue beaut! 3X Mode Edge in short hair finish. Soft and super supple. As usual the color is best represented by the underbelly pics.
A serious hat that I wish fit me. Luckily, I have one in this color that does.

It's not....people have caught him (and I saw it myself when someone here posted) selling hats he got from the goodwill auction site as "dad's Collection"

Too funny! The guy had me believing his story.
Shrewd, maybe, I don't know.
But if he's misrepresenting quality standards and pedigree, then that's not good.

He does that all the time, and overprices items, too. I detest that seller. He takes advantage of people.

@Just Daniel pointed me to this Wormser right after he beat me to a Stetsonian by a couple of seconds. He does that often!
Gracias, Daniel!

It looked like a longhair to me, but maybe it is just a thicker felt? I think it is a wonderful, wonderful hat.

It's a velour. Looks new

 

[Just Daniel]

I called Doc to tell about that blue velour just as he was trying to figure out who beat him to this 30s Extra Quality Stetsonian. I probably got it by seconds, I didn’t even look at all the pics because Doc had just written me about a Stetson and I knew he was online.

He might say I called to distract him, but that would be a new low for even me

That's a nice looking velour. Lovely.

 

[Just Daniel]

Yes, I think it is a rare, exceptional hat outside the usual US Stetson/Knox/Dobbs circle.

That's a nice looking velour. Lovely.

Nice find, Brent. I think I have seen that picture before, so I may have been following that sale.

The price was right so I took a chance. None are my size, but then it shouldn’t be had to find them a home. Decent European hats are hard to come by in the US used market.

Cool.. fairly uncommon Champ western. Nice find.

Just picked up this Emerson “Derby Bowler….”

I’m not sure on the size, but based on the seller’s measurements it should at least begin with a “7.”

Nice hat… is that ribbon like a pug style or is there a bow I can’t see?

The seller’s photos are pretty terrible:
