The luck of the guy ! There's only 12 in the world and he had two of them ! Managing to sell one for a world record price of £3500 - which is why he can afford to be generous with the second one and only ask £1500 ! You couldn't make it up ( well apparently you can )

Multiple 'roll eyes' emoticons here. Maybe this is this blocks version of buying a lottery ticket: 'There is chance in a million that I will get L2,000.'

And of course you fans of Sir Terry Pratchett know what Nobby Knobs says about 'one in a million chances'.

My final post to him and his response ;That's quite remarkable as the last one on ebay only sold for £35 in February - you did very well to get £3500 which would be a world record for any cap badge.

He replied
Indeed there very desirable are rare with the untouchables
Irony is clearly lost on him
