Arby's is now the proud new owner of Pharrell Williams' infamous hat, and it only set them back $44,100.

Williams wore the giant Vivian Westwood hat to the Grammys this year, and Arby's was one of the many to poke fun at his oversized headwear.

Hey @Pharrell, can we have our hat back? #GRAMMYs— Arby's (@Arbys) January 27, 2014

On Feb. 21, Williams auctioned the hat on eBay with a starting bid of $10,000. All proceeds were to benefit the charity From One Hand to Another, Williams' nonprofit that aims to give children tools to help them succeed in science, technology, engineering, arts and math.

The auction ended on March 2, and ironically, Arby's won the selloff with the high bid of $44,100. There was a total of 131 bids.
