Default WW1 Economy Brass Suffolk Regiment.

Hi,
I have more or less given up on eBay and trawl through dealers websites instead. I need another one of these badges, how about this one, it has none of the features that I have been warned about. Is it a good one, at £18, it does seem reasonably priced?

That's great, Rob, would it be pushing my luck to add one of these, while I'm at it?

Default Suffolk Foreign Service badge

Chris,
It depends what the seller wants for it, I have looked at my two on my phone and I have one with voided oak leaves and one solid oak leaves.

This badge has been copied, so I would err on the side of caution.

Okay then, Rob, I'll put that one on the back burner for now, I have bought the brass economy badge, at £18, it seems quite reasonable, I often see them for nearly twice that.

Chris, don't take my word for as being dodgy, how much is the badge?

They are not particularly scarce and the pin looks as though it has some age, so it may be OK.
