No idea if its genuine or not, I am merely not familiar with it - having a good working knowledge of current Sqn badges.

The A sqn badge, again not one I have seen.
On the patch sold on ebay it shows two letters 'T' on the papillae when it should show the Arabic letters for '2' ie '22' for 22 SAS.
The one that I have that is original is detailed and in 2D while the patch sold on ebay for that astronomical amount is flat and has no detail.
