Beware dubious relic German helmet dealer Wayne Jackson
Due to my own experience and that of others, Militaria enthusiasts be advised to be very wary of dealing with a former WAF member, Wayne "Jacko" Jackson, who got expelled due to his dubious actions. He is in Preston, Lanc, UK. On his web site he is selling a number of British helmets and some WWII relics. His site was "ww2 relics & collectibles", and has now changed to "Combat Helmets". In the process he removed his User Forum because he was receiving so many negative comments.

After purchasing 2 helmets from him last year with slow service but acceptable product, this year I purchased a "Relic Fallschirmjager Helmet" from him last month. The pics looked OK, if a bit limited, but when it arrived it was obviously not FJ. Contacted him immediately and his response was "to throw it in the bin" because he didn't want it back; but he couldn't pay me back because he has no money. I offered a VERY generous payback plan to fit his needs, but he wasn't interested. I have turned it over to PayPal, but do not expect restitution. Learn from my stupid.

Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader

His name on here was Wayne J and it shows he is banned.

Here is his web site: Combat Helmets – Formally WW2 Relics & Collectables | used Combat helmets
Can anyone think of other militaria sites where I should post a warning?
Pics to follow.
