Not junk and very collectable!

[BrodieBartfast]

It's not junk at all, just not appealing to a collector of Third Reich field gear. East German militaria is a legitimate collecting field, and has become increasingly popular in recent years. You wouldn't have any trouble finding a buyer if you decided to move it on. Obviously not as attractive as a WWII example to most, but a historical piece all the same.

EDIT: René beat me to it!
