That may be a plus. At least the Trading Standards people can deal with the sellers. At the moment, despite my complaining to them several times, the auction site are content to sit back and do nothing. Nothing new there then! Dave. |

Another seller ...
Here's another seller from Bulgaria. To his credit he's posting high-resolution images of the badges, so must be confident of his workmanship. Despite this he already has a few suckers bidding on his badges ...

That same red backing has shown up behind Australian badges being offered by at least two "other" Sofia, Bulgaria eBay sellers.It was one of the things that initiated my concern for the W.A. 16th Cameron Highlanders' badge. Now Tiptafts! S**t! I guess they will flood in to Australia now. But at least, as collectors, we can see what they have done to make it distinguishable from the real thing for the time being. I Man |

I did tell one of them that the badge they were selling was a fake and that the real one had a flat back!
Hope they churn those out - will be easier to then detect them as fakes Mick

Interesting to see that he has a 1914 Star "named on the back" but he fails to give details of the name, number and regiment of the recipient. No one seems to have asked for the details as no questions are posted and yet he has a bid of £46.00.

on the second picture you can make out that the star is named to 2957 LCpl G Prowse of the 10th Hussars. George Prowse was killed in action in October 1914. Looks like a badly cast copy to me ! Paul L |
