    Default Help with SS helmet for sale Please

    This helmet is up for sale and would appreciate some opinions as this is not my strong suit if I have one. To my eyes I do not like the decal, I am not a fan of the liner and the chinstrap looks like a repro. All thoughts and opinions are appreciated. This is way out of my league but would be happy to own if original. That is a big IF! The pictures are from the seller and are not the best. My apologies in advance.

    The big "if" is a big "no".

    That is not a real ET SS decal. Round bottom. runes too close to the edge. etc. etc.

    Check this out for comparison.

    Liner and chin strap are no good either IMHO
    "Please", Thank You" and proper manners appreciated

    My greatest fear is that one day I will die and my wife will sell my guns for what I told her I paid for them

    Another total "restoration" coming onto the market to make a quick buck.

    And, as I've droned on about before, one that will be accepted as original once we all have shuffled off this mortal coil!

    1 look fake SS decal. It's a shame as it looks like they have removed the Heer decal from the other side.

    Thank you for the replies and confirmation. What is the determination on the liner and chinstrap?
    The helmet is in an auction with several other tunics and a couple of visors and some dummy guns. Dummy guns are already at crazy prices. The helmet is currently at $950 US.

    Price is not even close. The only real thing is the shell and that has been "ruined" by adding a decal. Personally I place no value on something like this.

    Thank you Map. I agree that something like this has no value.

    The helmet sold for $1452.00 including fees. Someone is not going to be very happy.
