Default The Grenadier Guards Officer Field Cap Badge

Has anyone see the above mention badge on eBay / The seller is Emerrson, sells good badges in my opinion. However i believe he is wrong, believing that this badge belongs to the Grenadier Guards. I have mention this to him. He says it came with a load of Officers cap badges. I don't know how to get the link, sorry.
Was just wondering what Forum members thought ? Is this a case of ignorance, or arrogance.
Thanks
Andy

The seller is one of the good guys on ebay and sells good stuff.
I think its a simple mistake in its ID, which I understand because I dont know what it actually is either.

Quite a nice badge.

regards
