I'd say if it's something you really like and want, the door is going to close on it soon as a good deal.

Thank you, yep going to go for it
Just ordered it, now bordering on a state of ecstatic excitement.
Good for you. Sometimes you just have to do something you want to do while in the moment. Every time I walk by my M42 Luftwaffe helmet on top of my book shelf I just grin.
PS: when you get it, don't forget to show us all kinds of pictures of it.
I do the same thing with my other militaria! Its a feeling thats quite hard to describe to others - my friends think I'm crazy. I currently have a 1990s No.2 dress named dress uniform from the Paras and a beret (Northern Ireland and Iraq medal ribbons) another no.2 dress uniform from the 1950s, Brigadier rank, the man served in WW2 in Burma and then in Korea and a modern day Coldstream Guards drummers tunic like this (the one leading the wolfhound):

I will!
Thanks to this thread I found out the nice % discount. After browsing the webshop for several hours I pulled the trigger and bought a helmet. Thank you for the heads up.
I am extremely happy to announce that my cap has arrived in record time! The order was despatched on Monday and has arrived in an particularly out-of-the-way corner of the UK by Thursday. I am very happy with it - I hope this pictures are ok. Many thanks to all those who helped me in this journey, I hope this is the first of many caps for my collection.

Congratulations! Very nice - good luck for all caps to come.
You might like to check whether the cap spring is in place - looks like it has gone out of place a bit. If it isn't rusty you yould try to put it back into the seam of the top panel. If you're not sure how to do that then better leave it as it is. Looks nice this way, too.
