Unfortunately, at times, we get new members who are scammers who post pictures of items they do not own and troll to find a buyer for items they do not have. It is always good to post an image of your badges with a newspaper dated today to at least prove they are yours. It is an unfortunate by product of the Internet.

Oh great!

thanks to all the scammers - haha.
wait- it's not because i'm the only girl, is it? (completely joking... i think)
I'm guessing Ebay is not a good place since it's, well, ebay...

[Datrus]

No it's not because you're a girl because no such info on your profile is available....... and if you are you're not the only one here. Arno Wallpach is a still existing metal works factory.

Lars.. i was joking!
I saw that Arno Wallpach makes buttons and pins and medals still- it's a pretty area to have a metalworks factory!

Alas, the scammers who lurk on the internet are the scourge of forums such as this and everyone is rightly suspicious of new members trying to sell pieces they may or may not own.

It's nothing personal against anyone, just a precaution against getting ripped off. It's happened before and it will happen again. You have to ask yourself, would you send your money to a stranger in another country when you have no way of knowing who that person is or if they own the pieces they're trying to sell.

Lars has suggested a good way to prove you own the pieces.

I can assure you that it's not because you're a girl because no-one here knew that and don't worry, there are other ladies here on the forum so you're not alone.

Welcome to the forum.
As already mentioned by other fellow collectors, it's a bit difficult to sell items when you are a new member. Nothing personal; it's just a matter of being careful when you don't know well who your dealing with.

Hmmm...Refreshingly candid..........

Thanks! I was just looking for a place to sell them; I wasn't offering them for sale on this forum.
