After promising my wife I would slow down this year on purchasing militaria, I have had some amazing things happen to me since joining this forum.
I have met some wonderful people and have been able to acquire some great items, mainly through the esprit de corps of members here....
I always believe in treting people as I would like to be treated, and believe in karma....I have had members do things for me out of the kindness of their heart, colourising photos, bing offered my first SS helmet, acquiring items from the US and Australia, and hopefully being able to help in my own small way....I have been able to use knowledge gained here to help a lady make some money on items she was going to give away and recieved a bayonet as thsnks, today a stranger I met allowed me to purchase my unapplied heer decal by offering to pay half for me as a thankyou for my military service, I have met a fellow ausdie whom I have been able to get items at a reasonable price and I intern was able to pass on some items to him for his own collection, I have made lifelong friends....
I am indeed lucky and thankful and humbled by it all....
