Is this a good trade?

I have a question. I have a SE64 and a Q68 helmet that have been repainted post war and have postwar liners. Someone came to me with a No-decal M42 with original liner that is in ok shape. Does this sounds like a good trade (my two repainted original shell helmets for his original M42)? Thanks!

We also buy and trade your items and full collections!

Would like to see pictures if possible, saying that an original over a put together helmet is a better deal.

From an economic standpoint, see what a decent ND M42 is going for these days and what you could get for yours if you sold them. Even if the refurbs could fetch you a bit more I would still make the trade.

From a collectors viewpoint....IMHO a no brainer to me. The repainted ones should go.

Always go for decent shape originals over repaints...
