Ever wonder why there are SO MANY fakes in the hobby? I believe it is because of guys like this. This outfit must spend a fortune to have all of these replicas made and in stock to ship!

When one of us buys a nice looking item somewhere, and later wants to dispose to raise a little cash, It is that collector who gets the bad nameIt is not the company that manufactured and sold it!

So in this instance, thank these honorable Italians, for supplying the market with thousands more fakes!

Thanks for posting this. Good old ebay! They don't care if you're a crook or not. They don't care if you sell fakes made to rip people off. They don't care what kind of scumbag you happen to be. Just give them your money and don't put a picture of a swastika on their precious site. After all, they need your money, the founder is only worth over one 'billion' dollars and needs more. Helping to promote fraud is fine as long as you get the bucks. What a crock!

I doubt the Italians are making this stuff. I would bet money that it comes right out of Pakistan. Those slimes produce most of the fake cloth I've seen. When I get an email from one of those fake makers I don't just delete it, I send a reply, actually several replys, every day for a month. Let the bas--rds spend their time looking at useless emails and they won't have so much time to sew up crap. Twisted Evil

You can find mountains of this type stuff at nearly every militaria show.
Since there is a demand for fakes, a collector must be aware what is being made and sold.
Failure to look can be fatal to your wallet.
