Polish Para collar (Duff type)

[Gary Jucha]

Here's an example (to follow up an old thread) of a 100% Duff 2nd Pattern Polish Para collar kite.
Note the Parachutists lack of 1) feet 2) Belt 3) Rigging lines , and poor quality casting, and "monkey metal" production.
(Not to mention the cloth material used )

Hardly surprising from this seller Gary!

petehal1 makes me so angry. I'd say 90% of his stuff is fake. He sells it happily though to the unsuspecting eBayers. Infact, I got so angry with him today when I saw he had just listed a fake Glider Pilot Wing because I had only just listed an original one. It is actions like these that spoil the hobby and decrease the value of original bits.

Thanks for showing me what the fake one look like though

Hello Jack,
Also, the padre collars would be VERY VERY difficult to find, as there were only a handful of padre/chaplains associated with the Brigade throughout it's existance ....
..One in particular was KIA during Market-Garden ! .. lessening the odds of these patches being real in the 1st place.

LOL!! Look at the "Questions from other buyers" section on his GPR Wing. I don't know if I started this from what I had put on the one I listed or not, but whatever people are finding him out and he is denying it!

This is one:
<table width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0"> <tbody><tr bgcolor="#f4f4f4"><td width="410">Q: When were these made? Last week? Sure looks fake to me........</td> <td align="right" class="help"> Answered on 12-Sep-04</td> </tr> <tr> <td width="30"></td> <td colspan="2"> A: I do not deal in fakes.A pair of good classes maybe helpfull. Peter.Hall.</td></tr></tbody> </table>

I didn't realise ...

Jack,
I didn't realise that E-bay now posts the Q's and A's between potential bidders and the seller.

This no-doubt will generate a major "source of quotes" in future references through the forum .... !!
(Have you seen the "Barn-find" threads in the SS uniforms section BTW .. its a classic) ?

I wonder if E-bay realise what a can of worms they have opened
