Expensive Eritrea Police cap badge on ebay
Words don't actually fail me, but we do have a lady or two on this site. Knew I shouldn't have got rid of mine all those years ago.

Unfortunately our American cousins frequently have expectations which are seldom achieved when it comes to some of their eBay listings! Still I suppose you can't fault their being optimistic..........

Give it time....The Chinese will produce one for your collection at a fraction of the price.

About 20 years ago I was wandering through a street market in London and found an Eritrea Police badge just like the one on ebay. I remember that I paid 45 quid for it, which was a lot of money for a tourist from a weak currency area to pay, but I needed it . But that was 20 years ago so if anyone wants to offer me $2500US for it then its yours ( and may you live a long and prosperous life !) Hell, its a sunny day in the weak currency area I call home, give me $2000US ( offer only open for today )
