Default Help Wanted SAS Beret

Hi all, would like to ask if anyone has a original period SAS sand beret for 1983 - 85 with rayon sweatband which they would be willing to part with?

I served with 63 SAS Signal Squadron in the 80's but due to some desperate thinking some time ago I sold everything but my dignity on ebay to get myself out of a financial hole, unfortunately including my beret and stable belt. I would very much like to replace the beret (managed to acquire a replacement belt) but although SAS berets are ten a penny on ebay, I am having great difficulty in finding a genuine Compton webb beret with rayon sweatband that would fit the time period, although it wouldn't be my issued beret it would be more genuine than a modern one with leather sweatband, anyone able to help please?.
