I’m very sure about both the seller and the item... I wouldn’t trust one as far as you can throw him and I wouldn’t buy that badge even if the decimal place was moved twice to the left!

I concur with Luke on both his points.

The badge is load of rubbish.................and in my opinion, not even that good.

Locally made.............my arse.

The definition is all wrong, even for a locally cast badge produced in India, where 106th were The Bombay Light Infantry, who became the 2nd Battalion Durham Light Infantry.

The badge shown in the original post of this thread is also as bad, it is very reminiscent of several items regularly peddled on ebay as being made of an unknown base metal.

Regards.

Brian
