85 euro for that POS
That is already more than I paid for this one:

That seems to be a sweet looking bird, Luud ... any chance of "disclosing" more of her feathers ??

Due to a PC crash I lost all the software. I can't post the regular pictures because they are too big and I don't have photoshop anymore.
And if I resize them in some kind of a weird picture editor they become very small.
It will take a while before I want to invest time in my PC.....too much more important things to do.

But if I get photoshop working again and have a lot of spare time, I think it won't stay unnoticed

Another example .... this early Deumer PAB clocked at 91 Euro ( not mine ) !!!!!!!!!!!!!
.

Less then a year ago, you could pick these up for 40 Euro or less .....

uiiih

91€ is really much money, but these are rare. Was that on ebay germany? Haven´t seen that one

But you´re right...prices rise and rise but there will be an economic end sometimes, i hope
People will not pay every price...for that money i can begin to collect TR KM awards.

And i thought that i bought my/now Stijn´s bronce Deumer PAB expensive

[Nigel N]

It is a nice PAB, and rarer than an S & L, but 91 Euro's is a LOT of money!!
I think prices for early pieces will go up and up, for now, there are still bargains to be found, but we have all noticed the gradual increase in prices over the last year

[LuckyLuudje]

pffff, I saw that one.
While this badge is relative very common, the price is IMO way too much.
I bought a wartime silver "Daisy" PAB last week that was 7 euro cheaper than this one.

That was a good shot, Luud

Was that one on ebay germany or which ebay sold that Deumer PAB

[Matthieu]

Hi Rüdiger ... German eBay ... strange you missed that one ...

By the way ... German team just beat our Belgian squad in soccer ... 0-1 .

Whats the correct saying ???? A fool and his money are soon parted ???

149,98 Euro

[Nigel N]

Hi Mathijs!! Yes, thats the saying alright, amd very true in this case i think!!
I dont understand, the guy could have bought a nice early one for less than that
A lot of bids on it too
What would have been a fair price do you think, maybe 30 Euro's???

[Matthieu]

I had a bid on it for 26 Euro so your quotation of 30 Euro sounds quite right.

On the other hands, some-one did - IMO - a good deal with this one ....

It sold for 152,51 € ... from the looks of it, a early 57er RK case .....

[Matthieu]

This RK was also part of the sale ... not the earliest, but looking at the price the combo went for ... you got the RK for free !

Had I not acquired a different item minutes before, I would have gone for this as well ....

[Nigel N]

I saw that RK & case, the RK itself is'nt an early one like you said, but the case did look interesting!! Looking at the photo of the outside of the case, i was'nt blown away, but the inside made me think it was earlier too, the silk lid liner has the look of an early case, if it is, then that is a good price!!
Sometimes photo's can be misleading, i'm sure we've all bought something that looked great in the sellers pics, only to be disapointed when it arrived...icon_crashcomp.gif
Then, other times its the other way round, crap photo's, you take a chance, and ........RESULT!!!!!!!
