Has anyone dealt with Donegal Importers ( http://www.donegalimporters.com/mysitecaddy/site3/ )??? I ordered a "Boardwalk Empire" Newsboy Hanna Hat from them on November 16th only to receive one of those goofy patchwork hats. I phoned them, mailed it back to them per their request ( payed for the shipping myself, even though it wasn't my mistake, I had ordered the "Boardwalk Empire" Newsboy ). Hadn't heard anything back so I emailed them last night and received an email today that said " Scott, received your return. Your hat is in US customs, should be released today and to me by fri. Ill get it out right away once I have delivery. - John".

Am I wrong to be ticked off? Is this some half-A** company or what? What are others experience with this company?

First off, I like my patchwork flat cap :p

Secondly, I have no experience with the importer you mentioned but I have ordered directly from Hanna Hats four times without any issues. You may want to get your cash back from these guys and go that route.

Thank guys. I have been happy with my Hanna Hats, and I thought I would give this importer a shot when they offered free shipping. Lesson learned.

Cheers,

Scott

P.S. -- Classified00, no offense meant on the patchwork hat ;).

Yes I have worked with Donegal Importers and found them to be reliable and trustworthy. They always respond to my questions and get the products out quickly. They offer many products from Ireland and are committed to customer service. I highly recommend them!

Why Donegal Importers

Donegal Importers have been in Ireland and interviewing Hanna Hats and Ri'Na'Mara. They go right to the source, the manufacturer, to provide products for their customers. Thanks Donegal Importers!

For the type of cap you are wanting I would contact Carol at the Hat People they are great to work with.

that Boardwalk Empire tag is just a way to draw in someone who really doesn't know the name of the cap only that they saw it in a TV show.
She makes a great Newsboy cap and she makes them in many types of fabric. She is making me one in a denim fabric right now. I where a lot of newsboy caps to work everyday so I like a wide selection of fabrics and colors depending on my mood as I walk out the door.:)
