Dodgy badges from a seller in Greece
Hi,
I was looking at a few badges from this seller on Ebay: "nenkpisko0" Is the Infamous "Bulgarian faker" I've read about? The WW1 Returned from Active Service badge and Tiptaft Sliders are definitely fakes - although one Tiptaft has the correct M Mark on the slider the badge is fake. The second is easy to spot - voided crown, slider length, incorrect MM and has WD stamped. <https://www.ebay.com.au/sch/nenkpisko0/m.html?item=253913134313&hash=item3b1e66f4e9%3Ag%3 APCIAAOSwd4xbtMbO&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2562> Regards |

I've reported him to Ebay, and listed 4 items that are obvious fakes. I can't see where he says reproduction and he won't answer questions. That 27 Scottish badge looks reasonable though: Maker's marked Stokes, but the metal is wrong and no patina on the reverse. Some sucker will buy it from there and resell here.
