Default Polish Combat badges..real or not?

Hi,
These are for sale on Ebay....Not being a collector of Polish badges,but interested in them,I wonder what the Polish collectors make of them. The seller is very defensive regarding them and states they are genuine and have their original packaging. I am not confident enough in this topic to dispute the fact so opinions would help.

Hi Ivan,I can't tell if those are good or not BUT, speaking from personal experience it seems that all and any polish badges are/were copied at any one time since 1990. I would suggest to you to check with the fellows at the link below and, see the Polish very extensive section there ask many many questions.They helped me a lot some months back alas,it was too late I already had bought some worthless fakes.
