FS: 7 1/2 Royal Biltmore Fedora

[RPeers]

For sale is my size 7 1/2 brown Royal Biltmore Fedora, I am selling this as it is far too large for me. This hat needs some TLC the brim needs to be reshaped (reflanged?) and it could use a good cleaning. The retail on this hat is around $150 all I am looking for is $50 plus actual shipping (your choice air or surface), paypal payments please.

Complete newbie question

I am brand new to the hobby and this fine group and am looking to purchase my first serious hat. Would this one be a good choice for me? I really know nothing about the hobby and have to rely on the kindness of strangers for advice. Please give me some advice. Thanks, Sam

Honestly, I think this is a nice hat however I am not sure an inexperienced would be able to flatten and reshape the brim without some knowledge, but feel free to prove me wrong...

Thanks

Thank you for the honest assessment. I suspect I do not have enough knowledge to do what is needed to take care of the brim issue. I think I'll go for a first hat that is less of a project that I can start enjoying on day one and leave the project for another day. Good luck selling the hat! Best, Sam
