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

Thanks, Bob and @Rmccamey !
The felt of a 30s hat is very sweet and this one is ultra black!
Guess which hat I’ll be wearing tomorrow for whaywt?

 

My fourth Willoughby. I just love the felt on them! Luckily for me, no one bid on it, and the seller in France accepted my offer.

 

Dobbs Americana. I looked for a 3/8 for a while.
I mean to ask Ignacio to clean it and shape it like the one in the last picture.

 

I was about to send a link to this Resistol Cochise to someone I thought might be interested. Before I could send the link it sold. Hope it was to someone here; I’d love to see it cleaned up.

 

Cool hat!

 

Should have seen this one before, but I missed it. Very nice, Max. From the Willoughby hats I've seen on auction they seemed to use various manufacturers for their hats.

 

The feltlooks a lot like one of my other ones, but the hat has a different shape. I have high hopes.

 

$9 winning bid?? WOW!

 

I am not buying any more thin ribbon hats. I am not buying any more thin ribbon hats. I am not buying any more thin ribbon hats. I am not buying any more thin ribbon hats.

Oh well...so much for that.



A 7XCB with no cover on the Last Drop liner. One more failed resolution

 

Yeah, that would be tough. I’m still looking.

 

Nice job... not n the resolution. But I guess on breaking it

 

Well saved by a bad seller. Sale cancelled. Oh well. Spilt milk, sour grapes, eBay gripe.

 

Darn it!

 

Yet another Resistol Plains. It will either clean up or be moved on.

 

Does anybody ever end up with too many winning bids at one time, and kinda hope that some of them don’t work out before the auction ends? Asking for a friend...

 

Haha. Yup!

 

Is there a number for Ebay addicts? Seriously I need to stop! Have 6 hats on the way...

 

LOL

 

It’s a problem.

 

I wasn't looking for one but picked a nice, little-worn Akubra Snowy River for the princely sum of $1.25 plus shipping.
