I added the flag based on specific bits of advertising (pricing especially, some brags). I killed the bits I saw. I leave the flag for some other interested editor to remove if appropriate. Cheers.

I won't remove the price stuff again, but I don't think it belongs... it doesn't tell us about the store, really... we already know it has fine, hand made (expensive) hats... it tells us about the pricing of the merchandise. To me, it crosses from being info about a notable establishment into being an advertisement for its business. But that is opinion. :)

(ec) I think some idea of how much the hats cost is helpful and encyclopedic. What does "expensive" mean? I jsut don't think most people have any idea how much a hat like this costs. I know I don't So now we have some idea. I think you can get a nice one for $400 depending on how fancy you want to go. It's kind of an unusual item. As far as being advertorial, well, the sources were really raving about these hats, but I think its good you toned it down. We don't want panic in the streets as people rush to get their hands on these accessories.

I looked at the change log, rather than the page, and did not see that the flags were removed. Today I went to look at the page, and see that they are. I must say that I can't support restoring the pricing and removing the flag. I won't reverse either.
