BINGO!!!

Been checking through my Schieffer Parade medal bars book and an awful lot of the back of bars shots look very similar in the way this one is stiched?

Ive contacted the buyer and asked what he would like to do?

The stitching alone would not be a problem. Just as sometimes bars look too new, have medals out of order etc... But, if this bar can be traced back to a known seller of fake bars then there will always be the suspicion that it too is bad. At least the medals appear to be good. I was not so lucky with the Austrian fake bar I posted......

No, because from theese pictures only the medal for wounded seems to be original... :-(

Hello all

I just wanted to update this thread with the outcome. Ross was gracious enough to give me a part refund on the bar. He's been great to deal with on this and he stood by his word to put things right.
