I also think it's a good RS, is the tiny amount of solder a repair ?

[Manu Dalton]

Thanks for your opinion.

I don't know if its a repair or not because I don't have the badge in hand to told you! I will ask the person to know more about it.

I'am not so sure on this one...

[Manu Dalton]

Its a repair, I had ask to the seller.

Why you are not sure ?

Any other opinions ?

[Chet Sowersby]

Manu,
The reverse of Souval PAB's have always left alot to be desired. Their hinge/catch fixation for the most part was sadly lacking. What I see is a blob of soder that was dropped on the reverse and nothing more. It's a good PAB albeit a common one. Take your time, as I know that you can find a better example.

My mistake, forgive my healthy paranoia...

Its a repair, I had ask to the seller.

[Manu Dalton]

Ok, thanks to both of you for your opinion.

Chet, I have to say that I am not a variation collector, I don't really mind about the maker. I'm more that kind of guy who whant to have one IAB, one GAB, one PAB, etc. What I whant to do is to have one of each army combat badge...

I also have a small budget and the seller of this PAB ask 100$ us for it, so I think to compare with other I see goes for 200- 250$ on the e-stand its some kind of fair even if the back had a repair. What did you think about it ?

[hcliffe]

Yes, very fair price!

[Chet Sowersby]

Manu,
For the price you mention it is a very good deal!

Chet

[Den]

Agree, a fair price. it is also a variant RS badge with the different eagle.

[Manu Dalton]

Once again thanks all for your opinions!

I had ask the seller to put it on hold for me.

[Manu Dalton]

Just to tell everyone that the badge look great in hand, she is mine, my pressssssssssssssious PAB!!!!!!!
