It's a lot of money! I wouldn't and couldn't have paid that much, but then there are specialist collectors..As i said in an earlier post some one has been buying up a lot of Malay badges, police and volunteer forces at very high prices. I guess at least 2000 pounds worth of badges in the last month or so..
But then someone paid 3500 for a cloth patch at Bosleys last auction..no method to this madness
I guess I've spent a small fortune myself over 10 years and am now cutting down..
