Fake Australian Helmet
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/WW2-VERY-R...T/322179013008
Not even well painted design has been painted over the rust. Then look at other he has sold and is offering. WHY ARE PEOPLE SO STUPID!!!!!!! |

This seller is clearly practicing his school stencilling skills. The Tam O Shanter he has for sale would be laughable had some one not bid on it! As for his FFI Para helmet.....

He also has a helmet marked up to the 6th South African Armoured Division, and a camera with a genuine German bullet hole from the siege of Tobruk.
If I were lucky enough to find things like that I would keep them, not sell them on ebay.

I'm particularly impressed with his Airborne Royal Engineers Battledress that has Royal Artillery titles stitched on !

Take a look at his two negatives, though why only two escapes me.
http://feedback.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayIS...ms=negative_30 One for a repro pilots notes with crown copyright permission, = 1970's, but even discounting that it has an amendment in the back dated october 1945 and two handwritten dated entries from before that date in the front/ The other is a named WWII helmet which the buyer complained was not named and the seller denies saying it was named though the item description starts off with NAMED WWII RA HELMET.........
