Re: Schmole & Co, Mendon... ?
Hansi, nice but battered buckle, a $40 buckle for me though, but as long as you are happy with it

Re: Schmole & Co, Mendon... ?
Yes, I always find things with a bit of history to them more appealing than something in blank, perfect condition. I didn't mind parting with $60 for this Sieper buckle because I like the way it looks. I have to always take something else into consideration... I'm living in Australia! I have no chance of finding something at a carboot sale, flea market, junk shop, etc. so in a way I'm forced to pay a bit more than you lucky guys because, unfortunately, I can only find things on the internet. After searching all across Perth, WA, I finally found a shop that sells a few war items... they were asking $260 for a rusty WW1 run-of-the-mill buckle, and you wouldn't want to know what they were asking for the other few bits! They think anything older than 20 years is an antique... war items are almost impossible to get hold of. So, if I can pick up the odd buckle from one of the many sites for around $50 - $80 I'm happy!! Cheers... Hansi
