I would appreciate any advice from our fellow collectors in Poland. Would any of these items be popular in Poland?

Thanks,

Well items not to bring to Poland are fake SS insignia, fake SS honor rings and fake III Reich awards, as they have plenty of those for the moment.

I would think that might not be a bad idea, the Early USMC uniform is quite a rarity so I am sure that getting this is Poland is not very easy

No advice from Polish collectors?

you have a big problem, Poland is modern and collectors have PC! For the US militaria, I think it was interesting for us in 1990, now they can find all in Poland, in Prague, it's the same.

You do have a point. I forgot about the internet!

The last time I was in Krakau, I saw the military shop I knos since 1990...It's him who told me all was sold by the net.
Before, All was made by phone!

I think that US militaria doesn't really sell well in Europe. Maybe some surplus items and in the UK but not other places of what I'm aware of.
