Thought you might want to know.

See this one for example:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/British-Em...-/150654017740

The pictures are hosted on Photobucket:

This is one from his new ID wortley_lady:

Again pictures are from the same Photobucket account:

I came across this from Wortley lady - on the face of it looks OK then you look at the legs - poor thing is deformed. Some poor punter is buying it. All his other sare the usual fakes and copies.

Tommy,
This Royal Ulster Rifles badge is a 100% fake.
It is based on the centre of a cord boss, but was never a badge in its own right.
There is a similar badge, made in solid silver, for RUR airborne officers.
