Due to my inability, read as I might,and still don't know what I am doing wrong,. to add a pic or link, just gotta tell ya.
These two hats I've been forced to list on the bay before I could share/offer them here.
Check them out:

Found the Wormser after searching around a little. Nice hat, Eric! Wish my head were a few sizes smaller. Unable to find the Dobbs(perhaps it has not been listed as yet).

If I could be so bold as to suggest adding a few more key words in your listings? You will receive many more viewings and potential bidders.

Any more vintage lids in 7-3/8 or 7-1/2, like that beautiful Midnight Blue Wormser you sold recently?

Never think never! Always something new on the horizon! Yes, the Dobbs came out at 1:00 Pacific
I would very much like to read what you might suggest for the listings. I can always revise the listings. Please PM me, I'd appreciate it. That blue wormser was a sweetheart!
Thanks,
Eric

Those look like real winners. You should do fine.

I concur with delectans re: the key words, and here's why. A lot of folks search the title line only for words like "fedora" or "vintage hat", so if they only appear in your description, you may miss out on some traffic. You can't fit everything in the title, but a few basics might work in your favor more than, say, the word "magnificent", which few people would type into a search, appropriate though it may be.

I sure wish I had a smaller bean.

Gentlemen;
Your points were well made and taken. I was too busy using eye catching words I forgot to use common sense. Thanks for the reminders!
Though this isn't my first rodeo, as mentioned, I did not use the words that I search for either. Check 'em out now and see if the headings are better.
Eric

Hello, Eric. My apologies for not having responded to your request for additional 'key words' last night, but randooch summed it up very well, and your revised listings are perfect.

Great hats!
