WW2 RCAF Teslin Y.T. Royal Canadian Air Force Felt Patch

[badgeman]

HI All,
I recentlt bought this patch from a well known auction site!
When the patch arrived I first noticed the crown was not as in the listing picture, then I started to notice other differances, I would before I contact the seller, like your opinions on this patch?
I think it is a very well made copy, but not the one I thought I was purchasing in the listing photo?

Your comments would be very much appericated
Ian

Hi Ian,
The patch you received is not the patch from the listing. It is also a repro.

They are still showing the original patch (exact same photos) on a listing :

That vendor specializes in repro patches. None of them are original that I have seen in the listings.

Thanks Bill, in the listing nowhere does it say its a repro or copy, like the others for sale, so that plus the photos..... you can see how I was dupted!

Thanks again
Ian

Please let us know how you get on. Sounds like a total scam,and being from an American, I am embarrassed by it. We're not all like that.
