Welcome...
Your links not working mate!
Yep, link aint working.

It wasn't a link that he posted, but the auction number.
Heres a link to the auction he's referring to:
Original ss german helmet.guaranteed | eBay
Regarding the helmets authenticity, it would be best to ask the seller for photos of the decals. Which I assume it has as the seller hasn't posted photos of the sides of the helmet as ebay tend to remove any Nazi party related items showing SS Runes, Swastika etc....
Thanks
Danny
I'm uploading the photos for future reference, but it doesn't stand a chance.
Stay away from the auction if you want to save your money.
A real SS lid could cost more than 5.000 euros.
Looking for the photo albums of Leutnant Emil Freitag, 3. / G.R. 377
My experience with buying helmets from ebay was bad

Would love some decal pics but right now I don't think it's gonna be a real helmet.

IMO its bad, Leather should be stich toogether with no edge not one side over other side.
forget weather the helmet is real,what about the sellers feedback?honestly would you part with a large sum of money to this guy and hope there's a slim chance you might actually recieve it?stay well away,these un-savoury type is whats always killed ebay's reputation im afraid apart from the vast majority are straight up,dave.
You have done one thing correct here, and that is you came here and posted this very bad helmet prior to losing any money. Hats off to you on that. Stay away from eBay until you have enough helmet collecting experience to differentiate between authentic helmets and pieces and most of the junk that is on there, which is about all of it. eBay is a mine field. Stick to reputable dealers to start. You will spend more but will have good, authentic helmets with lifetime guarantees, and you will be fine. Welcome to the forum!
