Default Remembrance

As usual , people were cashing in on Poppy Week with fakes and unofficial pins/badges but this listing is ridiculous !

A 2007 Poppy Pin for £119.99 + £7.99 postage !

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/114645064...53.m1438.l2649

The seller's main description should flag it up as a fake but some people are really gullible .

New Rare Collectable Poppy Large Badge 2007, size 30mm x 20mm
The photo below shows the size of a small genuine 2007 pin and a large fake one.

Edit : Just spotted another seller offering the same fake 2007 pin for £9.99 , this one mentions :

i received a message saying that they did "not" think this was a badge issued by RBL although they were not 100% certain.
I was the one who messaged them (months ago) and told them the badges were definitely fake.
