Hey guys, I’m just starting to collect TR stuff and I appreciate all of your help so far. Currently I’m in the process of looking at items at my local shop, trying to find something worth picking up. So far, it seems everything I’ve posted pics of has turned out to be repro, but maybe I can get luck this time! Let me know what you guys think…..and thanks for your help.

Hello......
......I have to say it: "if you keep on going back to that neighborhood shop and sticking your hand in his fire, you're just going to keep getting burned!"
The amount of FAKES from that place is terrible. And the one, the only one, that might be good, is way overpriced.
Buy a big jar of burn ointment instead. At least you can trust your local chemist.
Sorry, but you were warned in the past.

Thanks guys for all the advice......i cant help but find the situation at my local store shocking yet kind of funny at the same time. i admit that i did get burned with the fake volunteer shields, but i thought it was perhaps just an honest mistake. it really seems that 99% of the TR collection at this shop is either fake or steeply overpriced. for some reason i like the idea of going to a shop or market and hunting for the good stuff.....i think i prefer that to acquiring things online, but the estand is the most legit avenue i have right now to jump my TR collecting hobby. I may not have good badges at that shop, but at least now i have a sizable collection of photos of fakes!!!
Again, thanks a lot fellas......youve already been more than helpful.
BTW......i would rather get some burn ointment cause i got screwed on a little thing and learned, over having to get KY cause i got raped on something expensive!
