Just picked up a nice small poppy pin , no idea where/when it is from but it is a similar style to a "doggy" one (war dogs/PAWS/dog handler ?) I found in 2019.

There is a third one with starting bid at £30.00 which finishes tomorrow. I'm guessing there is a batch of them around and more will start to appear , a lot of people are going to end up disappointed and out of pocket. .

What's up with the same guy posting 2006 poppy badges as soon as one ends on eBay, and it seems like he has multiple account's? He has one on now for £10.50! Clearly something wrong there.

I'm sure they will have already been reported to the RBL and they will hopefully take action. .

Just picked up this motorcycle pin , it is the same size as the I.O.M/Riders ones but doesn't have the same enamel/varnish finish. It is the same type of badge as the larger version (bought 2 year ago) which I assume was not an "official" one. I don't know if these are "branch" items or simply made for MC clubs/rallies ? .

Looking at the exhaust system on the bikes, I'd say they were Harley Davidson's, so probably HD Owners Club. Regards, Leo |

The Manx and Motorbike pins were available at the T.T (29 May 2022 – 10 Jun 2022) so should start appearing on-line soon.
The Royal British Legion Republic of Ireland are hoping to have their pin (see photo) available for the Annual Somme Commemoration and Wreath Laying at Islandbridge on 9th JULY. The Poppy/Shamrock and Poppy /Welsh Dragon pins were only available in their respective countries last year (due to supply issues) but hopefully more will be around this year. Haven't heard or seen anything about Manchester Bee this year but as these are normally widely available for sale/donation they may start appearing nearer the Manchester Poppy Day. The London Poppy Day pin is probably the hardest one to get hold of as they are not sold and only available to to those taking part on the day. If I hear any more information I'll post it. .

My Post @ #461 updated thanks to Mike V
The ROI/Irish pins are available for CFR's but not PAO's to order on Poppy Appeal order site so should be OK for 9th July. Last edited by Mike_2817; 25-06-22 at 01:45 PM. Reason: Amendments |
