2000 euros a bit much for a modern repro

2200 Euro for a helmet cover? That's crazy.

poor knowledge here

Please elaborate as so far all weve heard is Original and poor knowledge from you, if you are correct and we are wrong then by all means share your views and educate us as to why this is a period piece, noones infallible and if a reasonable explanation is put forward i'm sure we are not adverse to admitting a mistake, also if period would you pay this extortionate amount, the problem a lot of us have here is that E-bay is the main source of countless fakes and only on rare occassions does a true period item present itself but again the fakes are commanding very high prices, i am still not happy with the apparent damage in the areas shown and the cleanliness of the threads, it certainly isnt insect damage or moth nips nor is it caused by a wire basket

Hi Fella's,
Maybe besslein meant the discription of "SS helmet cover" was poor knowledge on the part of the seller?
Have a good one.

no i dont,i mean that you guys dont know how a real cover looks like and what is a price for a real one,this one was real and the price was right for a splinter camo cover.
