He bought a job lot of 80 +Indian badges from a recent auction in Exeter. The guide price was £200>£300 and he paid £950. If he gets his asking price it almost pays for the lot ! ( The reason I know is that I was bidding on them too - but not brave enough and also didn't realise the value of the Burma Rifles badge )

That may be its value but it's not until he sells it. And you are right - needs very deep pockets!!!

Default E-Bay

I’m sure he’ll make his money as a number of the Indian badges have been listed on E-Bay
