Help checking Luftwaffe insignia

[jorkataaa85]

Hi All,
I'm new in here and I'm interested in some stuffs in the selling section.
I just wanted to ask - are all items, listed for selling, checked?
I mean, does someone check while listing are all items original?

I want to buy these two for my Luftwaffe fliegerbluse :

Excellent "Geschwader Horst Wessel" Luftwaffe cuff title - Militaria Collectibles buy - sell at War Relics

Luftwaffe breast eagle - Militaria Collectibles buy - sell at War Relics

They look good to me, but wanted to check with you first.

Thanks,

George

A lot of the stuff for sale has been shown on the forum, you have done the right thing by posting and asking before buying.....all items for sale are by members, so it's a fairly safe area to buy from, as members selling fake items as original are quickly found out!!

Though it is not the mods responsibility to authenticate all items for sale....but it is a safe place to buy....

Use the forum to ask questions, but also use the forum to research and compare....always go into deals with knowledge and understanding of what you are buying....ask the seller for better pics if you need them, be polite....a seller should have no problems passing on photos or info if they have nothing to hide!!!

As for these items, I'm not going to comment becuse I don't know, not my area of collecting.

Good luck

Tony

Hello there,

Both are fine originals. I believe forums such as these are the best place to purchase/trade as reproductions will quickly be exposed by forum members if they are posted (99.9% of the time one slips by it is by accident and is promptly removed) I also like the fact that on forums collectors give each other a break on the price and retail is avoided. Hope you grabbed them for your collection and happy hunting!
