It would have been a nice gesture if you had offered these items to the forum members whose brains you picked before trying to get your max price on eBay.

Rare is it? By the nature of the work, there were/are lots of high ranking medical officers.

You even had the nerve to challenge members into answering your query when you felt you hadn't received a quick enough response.

This time,on this subject, I agree with Phil. Next time I/we should be more careful in giving this particular "member" informations now that I know he's a seller

Exclamation confused

I already offered them to a member who politely declined- should I take them off ebay?

Not sure what the problem is, I asked for information and decided to keep the YMCA hat as that was what members said seemed to be the best one- I was told the others were common so I put them up so I could buy more stuff.

I even mentioned it here:

I think thats what I'll do- Keep the YMCA one and flog the rest.
I don't want to break any rules or upset anyone, I'm a collector but that doesn't mean I don't sell items on ebay- out of all the things I have posted here, this is probably the only ones I put on outside of here- many I traded to forum members who asked first. I can't see why people are upset about this . Let me know and I will take them down. Again, I enjoy this forum but it would be nice if people could let me know this was a problem instead of accusing me. Thanks

EDIT: PM's sent

Voltigeur, you are in fact correct, I believe someone may have just placed it on the first scottish headress that they could find. CBH has only worn the Blmoral and the Glengary
