It depends what you were hoping for. You can't expect a genuine WW2 green beret for that price. This one appears a post war beret (I would say early 60s). The WD stamp is not original IMO. Have a look at the nice documentation provided by Steve (ASR142) on this forum.

Looking at the pics, it was sold by one of the many alias's being used by a seller I have heard is known for enhancing or doctoring items to increase their value IMO.
The slider pocket makes it post war.
