I would second the above, but as with all dealers, sellers or auction houses if you are not happy with an item get a second opinion and do not be shy in sending it back! How they deal with returns and disputes is what elevates them above the other less helpful outlets!

I've bought from Lew in the past and been very happy generally.
On the one occasion I wasn't the return and refund was accepted without any fuss.

I have a badge collecting friend here in Brisbane that has a monthly order with Lew and I have seen the badges that he has been buying over many years. Excellent quality and service and you can be assured that they are genuine. If not and it can happen then they refund. I buy there oddments they post on eBay and these are all good as well.

Cheers Dean
