Bids have been retracted and dropped from £34 to £19 so I am content that this post has saved someone an expensive mistake

I like some of the other offerings the seller has,especially the the converted Hampshire badge. It's been converted into a Yorks and Lancs badge !

You are correct in doubting his description as these copies are very fresh to the market place.

Indeed, it looks brand new!
