Chris,

Don't know if you had this one?

Alan
Thanks Alan,

We have it covered on this thread and it is one of the badges I am actively looking for - too much for me though and I would like to see better photos of this item before parting with too much money.

Regards

Chris

Looks like a price collapse in A/A badges!!!

Seriusly though if someone pays hundreds of GBP for an A/A then they must have rocks in their heads. Although this time the person did actually get a badge that was officially authorised for issue. I would have liked to have seen the slider though - hopefully the punter hasn't bought a dud.

Regards

Chris

I suspect the fact that it was:

1. In Canada.

2. Does not include cap badge in the title.

3. Nor mention that it is a/a at all might explain the price.

The last one at Bosleys went for £400.
