Probably the best place is the UK fairs most of which are at weekends and in the UK so not much use for those of you in Europe, I work Mon-Fri so the last thing I want to do at weekends is go driving all over the the country, so, I am quite happy with ebay, as long as you exercise care and don't go silly with what you bid on, you can get some good items! It does not take long to work out who the small group of genuine sellers are and likewise who the villains are, most of them seem to be based here in Wales????

LBHY, can recommend the following seller as reliable, particularly with Scottish badges.

http://www.helmetsandheadgear.co.uk/

I have no involvement with this business by the way.

Cheers,
Wairua

I would be careful when buying from that dealer he does have some glairingly obvious restrikes listed. His prices are certainly on the whole above top dollar IMO.
