WW2 British Plastic Cap badges

Did you wear a mask while you robbed him?

Nice price!

Cheers, Ade.

No mate, just put in a bid and tarrah! Surprised really as someone else had bid on it before me and I expected to get sniped at the death, but no and thank you very much. It just shows that if you have enough time and keep trying it can still be found for a good price. I win about 1 in 10 of the items I bid on.

Just "won" three more, Devonshire regiment and Kings Royal Rifle Corps with backing cloth patch. And RASC.

Not mine but I thought I would show them for reference. WLA Timber corps and Prince Consort's Rifle brigade.

Whoa there Jerry, leave some out there for me... :-)
Nice additions to your collection. These plastic badges are pretty scarce down here.

Some are fairly common here, such as the RASC, GS list, Ordnance, Pioneers etc, the paras are quite common but are pricey, whilst some, like the Timber corps are very uncommon as are some of the regimental ones. They used to be very cheap but all are going up in price, with some being very pricey especially on dealers sites.

Not the most expensive, Ades recce corps is £85 on a dealers and the AAC is £80, though one dealer has them at £100-150. Even the KRRC example I bought is on dealers sites for between £28-30. Some are even more pricey, depends on desirability and availability, like everything else I suppose. I have yet to find the Devons one I bought on a dealers yet, so that might be quite a rare one, I hope!

Also found the grens for £45 on another dealers, so it pays to shop around.

Just found the devons for £35, so a fiver well spent.

I'll just keep looking locally, can get away with prices between R100- 300.
