1- The edgings on the collar tabs are odd.

2 - I am unable to comment on the NCO triangles and the rifles insignia.

3 - It seems that the three badges that abut the ORS may be copies.

4- The star-cockarde on the Budionovka is postwar Yugoslav type.

I agree and Guard badge is postwar.

Seems put together, at least better pictures of the insignia needed, the NCO's corner triangles are definately in fantasy shape as stated by Richie. Budionovka stinks even over the monitor- ugly fake. I will definitely pass on these items

This confirms my golden rule, a good item have a starting price at 1 $ (or €) and no reserve prices ....

...actually the GOLDEN RULE is exactly what you have followed in the creation of this thread: Ask questions BEFORE you buy.

The badge next to the Order of the Red Star is supposed to present an badge that is highly rare and only an very small portion of them were made, if any. It reads Карельский Перешеек (Karelian Isthmus) and it was meant to be given to soldiers of the Red Army, who had fought on the Karelian Isthmus during the Winter War between the Soviet Union and Finland. These are faked and if you see this in an tunic or for sale as an real one turn away immediately.

In these days when the copies are often good, i prefer buying my items from dealers and collectors i know for a while.

It is better to pay a little extra, than to loose alot.
