Caveat Emptor
 

Probably just a coincidence but a number of Kings Liverpool badges have appeared on a certain auction web site in the last couple of days which purchasers should give serious consideration to before bidding:

P.B.

Can't wait to see these described in about 10 years as "they were in my fathers collection so they must be originals".

David, one is already :

"Excellent vintage condition. Original Patina.”


I suppose a polite way of describing some vendors descriptions is "marketing", although perhaps a truer description would be a load of c--p.

Nice One P.B.
I learnt not long ago like another member on here to steer away from the seller of the first item you identified. I have noticed of late a few sellers/dealers have listed some pretty dodgy offerings lately which I think is a shame because I think reputations count a lot in the collecting world, Like going to a restaurant if you didnt enjoy your meal when would be the next time you would go there!

I agree Paul. The first seller you mention I do steer clear of as I can't be bothered to have to check everything he sells so intimately, when going to a dealer should eliminate some of that IMO.
