Goodbye VINTAGE BORSALINO ALESSANDRIA ITALIAN FEDORA 7 1/2 box

[PapaSimone]

Hi,
I'm curious if anyone picked this up on the auction site that "no one seems to name" (I've noticed through my lurking). I'm a bit new to the internet auction scene but I watched this beauty for a week hang out at $21.00 and I thought I would jump on it for around $30. It was a beautiful hat and I'm sad to see it go to some one else's noggin' but others jump on it and were able to pay far outside of my range. If someone on the lounge got it I would love to know how it looks in person and, for that matter, on their person.

I was watching that one just for the sake of watching. I knew it would go way up, I'm actually surprised it didn't go higher. Probably would have if the seller had sold it in the winter.

It had what appeared to be pretty visible moth damage.
Not that one could tell with the minimal description and
lack of detail photos. I wouldn't be inclined to bet top
dollar in those circumstances.

... I thought the same thing early in the bidding. Not that I have enough to bid "top dollar" on anything :eusa_doh:
It looked pretty ragged from the photos they posted

It went for $164.00 in the end.
