Opinions about website

[António Fragoeiro]

Hey guys, found this website some time ago, the shop is located in Normandy- France, Paratrooper Militaria, its online catalog seems impressive, but before ordering anything i would need some opinions, what do you think about it?
Thanks.
Best regards
Nuno

I won't make any comments as it is US, and what I know about US gear, you could fit onto a postage stamp................BUT, interestingly, a fellow dealer who deals exclusively in US Vietnam gear, said that 90% of the stuff being sold is actually fake, and most of it is made by the Vietnamese and has been since about 1975.

So a paratroopers shop in Normandy? Well it might be ok, but always tread wisely, and know your stuff

Just bought a repro jacket from this site, will let you know more when it turns up. I must say their reproduction stuff seems cheap.

That looks remarkably like the shop attached to 'Dead Man's Corner' Museum. A very interesting place to spend a few hours.

Hi, has your repro jacket arrived yet?

Nuno, yes it turned up. The correct size, wrong jacket, wrong camo pattern!
I had ordered a Panzer WH jacket, splinter camouflaged.
What I got was a Camouflaged jacket, dot pattern.
This may be because they had run out of stock. They could have contacted me.
I may shop there again, I'm not sure.
Regards to all, Simon.

I agree, they should have contacted you about that situation, im still thinking of buying something there.
