Somebody will buy it, post pics on here or WAF or elsewhere, then when it is slated as a "made-up", despite any salient pointers as to why it's "bad", STILL be adament that it's a genuine, all singing and dancing lid and "get the face on" with us, or whoever!!
As soon as I checked the available pic's, even my wife questioned it's originality, and she knows less about WWII German helmets than I do, and I don't know a lot! LOL

thanks all, was wondering who in their right mind would pay that.....the final price was well over $12,000 USD. I think Doug hit the nail on the head.

The most obvious tell tail sign for me was the airbrushed paint over phoney wire, leaving a clear mark beneath the wire, yet the wire remains clean, definitely a mark up scam as Doug points out,and for once I will endeavour to be polite and just say there are some little rascals out there
There's one born every minute!....
Interesting to note that by looking at the bidding history that the winner (who has a feedback score of 131, which is pretty low) has withdrawn his winning bid of $12,201.
In the last 6 months he has withdrawn a total of 11 bids. The next nearest to this large amount out of 12 bidders in total is 1 bid in the last 6 months, many have a clean slate. If that doesn't show that there's something fishy going on as Doug and others have stated, then what does?
