FAQ
33 percent of every hat sold sits in a separate account until the vote closes on February 2. Then it goes to the winner, in one check, photographed and posted here. The three auction hats are sold by that organization directly, 100 percent to them.
Because the rest keeps The 8647 Coalition itself running: the hats, The Record, and the next project. A third of every sale plus every auction dollar goes straight to another organization doing the work. We publish all of it, including our own books.
Because it's your money and your call. Also because a lot of these organizations can't put their name next to a hat that says what ours says, and we'd rather give them the money than the headache.
If you have to ask, ask a friend. Or scroll up.
Same reason. And the single is $47.86: same numbers, other way around.
No. Every hat in the main run gets a random number from 0048 to 8646, so anyone could pull a 1776 or a 4700. The Founding 47 keep 0001 to 0047, and 0086, 4786, and 8647 are made separately for the auction.

Every dollar refunded to the card you paid with, no questions. We'd rather not make 2,000 hats than make them badly.
If we fund by Thanksgiving, hats ship by January 20, 2027, two years to the day after the inauguration. Tracking the day it leaves.
Forty-seven Founding Seats at $8,647 each. A Seat claims one number from 0001 to 0047 for every drop we ever make, a Founders package of hats, apparel, and extras, two hats and a pair of surprise gifts with every future drop, and the right to nominate one organization to every sponsor-vote slate. Seats can be resold, and are paid by card or crypto. See the Founding 47.
Nothing in the U.S. on a pair or more (orders of $86.47 and up). A single hat ships for $9.86 in the U.S., any order with a hat ships for $21.86 internationally, and add-ons on their own ship for $4.86. Why so much? Thank Trump: his tariffs and his war drove up the cost of shipping everything. Add a third hat to a pair and it rides along free too.
Yes. Every order comes with a printable card showing your two hat numbers, so there's something to open on the day. The hats ship by January 20.
