re: SS Officers grey Schirmmütze on Craig G next auction
A decent cap, for sure, but I would absolutely have the ersatz sweatband restored as Gottleib suggests-it's only partly there, in any case. Sadly, this would not repair the underside of the Visor,however. It does have a noticeable hole in the cloth also...
Abit on the high side for price and condition, but the values have been rising these last few years.

I've been informed the black ss visor on that auction is fake. Buyer beware, even with proof of forgery, a refund is quite unlikely. Hopefully none of our members here will be fooled.
As for the op cap, I, too, like it. The fact that the insignia positioning matches that of the insigina in the photo adds a desirability to it, IMO. The price is a little high, however. Especially when one considers the condition of the interior.

Yes ive allways like this cap but not 12k like it etc.
Crazy thing is it will be probably fetch 9k plus which is just out of my range etc.

re: SS Officers grey Schirmmütze on Craig G next auction
The grey cap is quite real and easily fixed, especially by our own artisan, Mr. Ben. I think SS caps go for more than you posit, but don't ask me, as I over pay as a rule. If someone will show me the bargain basement and bomb proof SS cap depot, I will camp there happily.
I am not fond of the vendor myself, but the piece itself is authentic. Here is a real black general's cap, by the way, since the sight of the real thing is rather scarce here with the ongoing freak show.

Good luck with getting an idea on how much one would cost. I can't.

Personally, I'd rather spend abit more and pick up the cap by SSamir in the classifieds....
