Run away. Don't give it a second thought. Besides being fake, the decals are on the wrong side anyway for factory SS helmets.
Please use the resources here on the forum.
We have a decal database. Here is the one for Quist SS helmets
SS - Quist

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

Thank you very much. Is the helmet also a replica?

And the decals are on top of surface corrosion. I am not a helmet guy and I spotted that in seconds without opening the images.
We have some real helmet experts here so it is always very wise to ask here before getting burned.

As already mentioned, there are hundreds of posts showing real, and in some cases fake helmets with which to use as learning aids. Continually asking whether a helmet is fake or original will not increase your knowledge. See the link below for a list of very useful resources.
