TROPHY BELT-PERIOD ITEM????
Hi everyone. I wanted to ask if anyone had seen this on Ebay (Sorry about not being a link)
item # 270711307923 I wanted to ask what the general opinion was of this item, as from what I have read on here, that Leeds Pal's one is a questionable item; like I have to say IMO are most of the badges on it. Has anyone got any experience with this seller. I suppose it's a good way getting rid of a bunch of iffy stuff on a belt, as it would have a better provenance to the new collector. Regards Simon. |

The seller does have some genuine items (probably 5-10%), but has not got a clue as to what is genuine and what is not (or gives that impression) although all his listing carry the original tag??. He was called "Eric the Vile King" here on the Forum about a year or so ago, and I would still be very cautious with his wares.... This belt seems to have some newer items amongst the old and genuine accoutrements!

I think Andy's hit the nail on the head here, a few of them look like they have been on there a long while with dark loops of wire attaching them, I would say the more desirable items have been removed & listed separately & replaced with the blatant newer stuff, I'd leave it !!

Oh, I'm not considering going for it; I wouldn't touch his stuff with a ten foot pole. I just wanted to read what I have to confirm my own thoughts. I spotted this character a long time ago, once I got back into the badge thing again.
Thanks chap's |
