ek1 in box need opinions

[moni]

hi again
i guess someone erased my post because i wanted to sell this iron cross.sorry, i didnt know it is not allowed.
ok than i will not sell it here.
i would like to get some opinions of collectors.and maby find out how much i can ask for it if i would try to sell it somewere else.
since i still havent figured out how to add pictures in here i will try to describe it as good as possible.
so far i found out that it is original.
it has a swastika and the year 1939 in front and a stamp "26" on the needle in the back.
in the middle it is magnetic and it has no rost.to me it looks like it has never been worn.hope this is enough information.if not please let me know. i can send pictures per email.

Welcome

Hello Moni,
Welcome to the group. It is hard to evaluate your item without a photograph of the front and back. It can be difficult to understand the group policies at first. I am also new, but I am very happy I joined. The advice of the group’s members has saved me much money. Members are very helpful. Here are some policies I believe I understand.

Membership is explained under the “Register” icon.
A new posting begins as a “new thread”. A reply begins as “post reply”.
Any registered member can post a new question.
Any registered member can reply to an existing post.

Posting pictures and selling items requires a paid membership.
If you pay, you are upgraded to “Association Member”.

Association member’s posts and replies can include photographs.
Photographs are usually necessary for an effective evaluation.
Association members attach photographs in a “manage attachment” option.
The necessary “manage attachments” option only shows to association
members.

In manage attachments you “browse” (locate), open and upload your
photograph to your post or reply.
You can only load pictures that are 700X700 pixels maximum.
You can load one picture with the original post.
You can add another picture to a post with a “reply” .
You can reply to your own post.
Association members can sell an item in the E-Stand.
It is good to have the item evaluated first.

Again, welcome Moni. I hope Wehrmacht-Awards is useful and enjoyable for you. It has been for me.

Hallo Moni,

Du solltest es nicht unter 250.- EUR verkaufen!

danke für die auskunft .ich habe bereits einen händler angeschrieben,der kurz und bündig antwortete das es 75 euro wert sei und er 45 zahlen würde der wollte mich offensichtlich über´s ohr hauen ich werde ihm gleich antworten,das ich es in´s klo geworfen habe

[Hank C.]

A dealer offered you 45? Nice. Who? This forum is perfect for exposing those who try to rip people off. There's no crime in a good deal, but to straight out screw people is wrong.
