Para badge collector needs original FJ badge

[zvezdah1]

HI All,
First post to this forum. I find the FJ stuff absolutely fascinating, sadly can in no way afford it. BUT, I do collecto worldwide para badges and wings.

I'd dearly love to find a nice ORIGINAL cloth and metal LW para badges. Does someone have a source, someone that won't stiff me? What's the fair market price for these badges on an average basis?

I DID do a search and read the exc. reference thread on cloth para badges (that would be a good "sticky" thread I think).

At any rate hoping some of you can help me on this, please be gentle!

Hi Chris, Nice to see there is another world wide para wing collector in Georgia.
Good luck on finding a real LW para, cloth or metal that is reasonable. I have seen them from $125.00 up to $3800.00. My advice is take your time, be patient and do a lot of research. The best way to obtain one is from a reputable dealer. As far as other world wide wings, I might be able to help you depending on what you need.
