Sketchy facebook hat ad. Buyer beware
Facebook recommended this to me. The pictures look to good to be true.
This has scam written all over it. I'm betting the pictures are stolen.

Yeah, it looks like Brian's plus a little (bad) photoshopping to adjust the color.

I reported this and confirmed with Brian Lalonde (Screencapped) they are his stolen photos.

Now the challenge is to try and reblock/shape it into something recognizable!
Re: Sketchy facebook hat ad. Buyer beware
The presentation is nice at least.

So, is it a wool felt hat?
Nothing a little steam, new ribbon, a reblock can’t fix… I think!

Re: Sketchy facebook hat ad. Buyer beware
They always send something so you get a tracking number. Usually it’s a knockoff of what you ordered. Sometimes it’s a little piece of @#$% that has nothing to do with anything.

Why did you even bother?
Re: Sketchy facebook hat ad. Buyer beware
Nice teardrop bash up top! idk, maybe use it for work outside in the yard. Those DP hats are getting up in price! I bought one to knock around in and it cost almost $40 a few years ago!

Re: Sketchy facebook hat ad. Buyer beware
I think it is not too bad, actually. You can give it a reblock and it will be an Indy hat.
