Default Buyer beware...

SOF have a new line in LRDG slip on titles which are great copies and nearly very close.....great for re-enactors....they only cost £8. I would hazard a guess that these maybe costing someone a bit more unless they are careful..and am very happy to be told i am wrong but......https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/223739510949?ul_noapp=true

If you are not “delighted” you can return. The base material and thread look quite fuzzy in appearance.

When he uses a clothes peg to determine the width of a wing must mean his stuff is authentic.

Regardless of the authenticity of that wing, the clothes peg is quite useful. Many UK sellers use a 20p coin for size reference and I have no idea of its size.
