Default Hello
Hello,

My name is Alex and I am very new in this hobby. I am aware that there a many fakes and restrikes out there. Do you know some trustworthy online dealers who sell originals? In the beginning I’d rather pay a little more than buying fakes. I hope you guys can help me.

Alex

Hi Alex and welcome to the forum.

There are a number of excellent dealers out there who provide a superb service.

I will send you a PM (Personal Message) of some of the ones I have used. That's not to say that my list is exhaustive, I'm sure there are many more...


John

Welcome Alex,

There is a wealth of knowledge on this site and if you look through some of the old threads, you will find lots of information that will both help you and probably save you money as you go through the minefield that is badge collecting.

Regards, Ivan
