The edges on the one highlighted on eBay look pretty ragged.

Seller states "a good used badge" really, by who exactly?

Greetings Simon.
Earlier this evening, whilst searching for something else, I happened upon his offerings. I came to the same conclusion as you. Keep away. Regards. Brian. |

He’s been at it for ages, unfortunately they’re getting better.

He has certainly "been at it" for a number of decades.

Thanks Simon, you can see that most of them ( that i looked at ) are put together, and he's using horrible footed lugs.

Shoulder title fakes
There are other purveyors of rubbish about, I looked online the other day and was surprised at the number of copies around, give them a year or two and they will be hard to spot.

Copies.
This seller is also known for selling good and bad copies of Third Reich items mixed in with a few genuine items and should be avoided at all costs.

Paul Waterworth is well known for selling fakes, he used to run a webshop www.ww2medalsbadgesandinsignia.com but it seems to be closed.
