It worked for me (5/5) | Dec 5, 2007 | Jim Weil | Fremont Ca US |
| I wanted to take my wife, who has limited time off at this time of year, on a safari for our anniversary, so I decided to take here to Safari West, near Calistoga, about a 75 miles from where we live. So that we would look the part, I got us some khaki clothes, but could not locate pith helmets anywhere locally. So I found VillageHatShop via a Google search on 'pithhelmet.' Since there were so many choices I gave them a call to see what would be most appropriate. The agent that I talked to was extremely helpful, courteous and pleasant. She took the time to answer all my questions and suggest the best and least expensive shipping option that would meet our schedule and insure we would have them before we left. I placed the order and the hats arrived without issue, and at the right time. They were exactly as described. We wore them during our entire trip and found them to be well made, very comfortable and light and extremely realistic. We received a number of complements from both visitors and staff of Safari West which was a great experience. Since my wife had no idea where she was going or what was in the 'box' before we got there, I had to trust VilliageHatShop for sizing info which proved to be absolutely correct. Now that the trip is over, we plan to use the hats for gardening as they seem to be very durable, lightweight and offer good sun protection. This was my first order with VillageHatShop. Given their helpfulness, timeliness pricint and attitude of their staff, I would strongly recommend them to anyone considering hat purchases and will consider them again as a first choice for any future hat purchases myself. | ||||
