He has conned countless people. The eagle eyed members here however usually catch him. You just saved $650!

Have fun playing with him. Did he say he used to live in the US and moved back to Poland recently? Keep us updated. Save the emails and post them.

That said, he is no beginner to this game and he does not get flustered with threats. He knows he can't be touched (I think that is why he doesn't "sell" in Europe where he could potentially get caught)

Mind you do be careful as this fella is a criminal syndicate from Eastern Europe!!

Beware! $650 is the telltale price on a lot of his items. Including SS daggers and the like.

Hello Gentlemen,
AAAAHHHHH Pawel Nowak....this guy is now a myth, some kind of bad guy that old collectors talk about to their collector kids when it's time to fall asleep....beware of Pawel, he's gonna sell you crap in your dreams....
I did read or hear many stories about him and people caught in his trap
Once in Poland or in Czech republic, seen in Germany or someone heard of him in the States....
I call him "Keyser Soze of militaria"....
sleep well kids....



PS : and he pretends he got the EKII, but even the ribbon is fake...

Pawel Nowak still doing the rounds! Check out this thread:

Need help! Authentication

Hi Brett, this helmet has been posted for authentication many times - each time with the obvious verdict. (Yeah, I am an attorney and can't shed the verbiage!) I was looking for this thread when I read your post. Thanks, you saved me a few frustrating minutes trying to find one. This POC is a one look one second fake from across the street.

What a perfect description. "Keyser Soze".

This was the email he sent when I asked for more pictures of the helmet. Completely disregarded my question and sent pictures of his collection instead.
