Welcome to the forum Kim!
The badge is a genuine G.H.Osang Erdkampfabzeichen with the Nickel Silver eagle. Unfortunately the missing hardware reduces it's collector appeal and therefore it's value. I personally don't believe it's worth anywhere near the asking price, but that's subjective. It would display o.k. on a uniform or in a frame at a push, but I would honestly let it pass no matter how cheap. As for the vendor, I am not familiar with him, but the M.u.K. 5 Erdkampfabzeichen on the same page as the one above is a known fake, the makers mark and hardware being wrong.
Regards, Ned.

Hello and welcome to the forum!
I have uploaded the photos directly to the thread as we refrain from just posting links due to the fact that once the item sells, the thread will become useless. I have also removed the link.
I agree with pretty much all that Ned has stated.

Welcome to the forum, I agree with the guys that this is an original piece. Personally I would advise that you leave this one alone as if your father-in -law is a collector he will be pleased that you thought so seriously about what to get him, but be disappointed with the "gifts" damaged condition.

Thank you guys so much for y'alls fast reply and the welcome messages!
I'll let this one go and look for another one, even though I have no clue where to find stuff like this. If you guys have any tips on where to get some nice ones please do shoot! 
I also apologize for the link I should have read the forum rules before posting and not afterwards.
Kind regards
Kim

This one isn't bad for the money, and at least it's a genuine complete piece. The maker is unknown, but has been linked to Hammer & Sohne due to examples being found with packets named to that maker. I've used the dealer once myself and had no problems.
