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

Thanks, Rodkins.

I was surprised to win this Penn-Craft at its opening bid. Where were Alan and Josh to save me from buying a style with which I haven't yet been comfortable?! :eusa_doh: [huh]

I was at the beach... You will look great in it!

Cheers,
Alan

Wow, I would have loved to have that one 2 weeks ago at the beach, unfortunately too big anyway.

This is not mine, but there's this nice looking Dobbs Forty buried in this lot of five nice looking hats.

I can't wait to get it. The Dobbs 40 will be the only hat that I will keep out of the lot. Even though the two Custom Made hats have great proportions and look great, I am really trying to dwindle down my 50's hat collection and concentrate on my pre-40's collection. I'm going to keep the Dobbs 40 as a regular wearer instead of a "shelf-er." The other 4, I will be posting on ebay as soon as I get them and give them a good brushing and steaming.

Good job, Josh, you're getting a great collection going!

That's a great deal for what looks like at least three winners.

not mine - great leghorn, 7 1/8, under $35 shipped

[zetwal]

You're right, Lefty. I think that was the missing accessory!

Blingo!

 

[SteveAS]

Well done, Josh! If that Dobbs Forty had had a 2-3/8"+ brim, I'd have been a competitor . . . I liked the Custom Mades, too, so I might become a customer.

Blingo!

That's a good one! :eusa_clap
