I believe this cap have many issues and for me its a franky made out of some original parts.

I have notified the seller that i belive his cap is fake and that im posting it for diskussion.

You can have this one from the same source plus I believe there's another one that nearly identical.

I think there are 5 actually from what I have heard.

To make a famous statement, I could entertain doubts!

Love that sprayed on dirt at the front, it is a classical!

Your such a cynic Peter.

Ya, I've felt "cold" about this cap and the rest that turned up all at once in the same collection. They all bear the mark of the same hand...

They both have the same bad "fingerprints" of the same "maker"

And i think they all came from the same source.

I agree with you all guys. Most reproduction caps are made out of wool and not tricot. This because tricot nowadays is very hard to reproduce the same way as wartime tricot. Besides this the quality of the leather visor does not match the rest of the cap as well as the imprints of the scull. And the least, sorry for all trustfull Polish and Russian forum members, a lot of reproductions come from eastern Europe.

I have visited your excellent site.Now i am a few years into being a senior citizen i am not into buying anymore German regalia.Don't need my son going crazy sorting out the sale of 43 years of collecting.I have a detailed listing of my items that took forever to make.I will not put anything into the computer and i know many collectors do,but i am concerned about these hackers who possibly could get that info.I have taken precautions,but they are clever some of these dirtbags.That sprayed on dirt is some stupid idea!!Thats another reason that i have no wish to go through seeing all the junk out there.SS material is super expensive and the greedy pushers of hump ups is unbelievable!Take care Peter.Carl

I would recomend the buyer to return this cap for a full refund as it is not a original one. Anyone bought any of the other caps in this "collection" should do the same ASAP.

Very silent from a seller who otherwise is very happy to make all sort of stupid comments in other threads???

Will you have some honour and buy back your fake crushers?
