Hey guys,

What are your thoughts on this piece?


Thanks for your input

Hi, I think you need to show, if possible, a good close up of the decal from straight on to it and also all of the liner if you expect to get a worthwhile opinion. It looks alright from these pics, but for an 100% certain opinion, more pics are required IMO.

Ditto.

[Adrian Stevenson]

Looks promising so far.

Cheers, Ade.

As the others have said, looks good at the moment, but we cant see the helmet properly from the pictures supplied.

Thanks guys.
Sorry, I was just using the photos that the seller is using in his ad.

Here are a couple more

If the decal turns out good than it's a very nice example. NS maker by the looks of it.

Think I'll give it a miss. Turns out the seller is Pawel Nowak

Then that is a very wise choice what email address or username was he using when communicating with you?

Thanks

He is selling items on a classifieds page called backpage.com. It looks like he has a number of Helmets and daggers listed. He is using the email :apollo13@windowslive.com.

Here is a copy of his email to me;

Thank you for your answer. I have got these items as a payment for my archival research work. But I also detect some places with my metal detector and I have found some items personaly. I am an archivist and I live in Poland (EU) now but i lived in Sydney for 2 years. I am 38.

If you have an interest in the helmet, let me know. You will need to add 20$ for shipping. I accept bank transfer or western union and i use UPS Express Worldwide as a delivery method.

I am waiting for your answer.

Sincerely,
Pawel
