This guy says he knows his eggs, which may be the case but I don't think he knows his war raised cavalry badges at all.

Should your option differ from mine then please don't bid

He knows his eggs; however I thought the expression was that, 'he knows his onions'. It must be a regional variation.

Some are common fakes and you don't need to be able to see the backs, the fronts alone give them away as WRONG!

Fred,
If they are your badges, please believe that a large majority are fake! I would end the sales and list them individually, otherwise the bad badges of which there are many will drag down the prices of those that are right!

And the spelling police - it clearly should be 'You're a tw*t': which I don't think you are by the way.
