Fake sold by dealer

[Marc Garlasco]

Watch out for this one. The obverse is quite a good copy of the S&L, but the back is crap. Beware though as this was sold to a member recently by a major dealer with a number of fake Luft and Army Flaks on his site. Hopefully he will get his money returned. I don't want to post the dealer's name, but he has these letters in it: j.a.m.i.e.c.r.o.s.s.

Hi guys......

......since he isn't afraid to list and sell fake militaria on his website, I can not see any reason to keep the name of Jamie Cross a secret.

To be fair......he does offer genuine 3rd Reich as well.

If you decide to do business with him you had better be sure of his wares. Show them here first, for review.

[Marc Garlasco]

Oh, I never said all his stuff is fake, but some of the Flaks are. Of course a dealer can not know everything, but listing a badge with a maker mark of one that did not make such badges is questionable (yes, things happened - I have seen good maker marks on the wrong badge), but you add the evidence of casting, hardware, etc. and this one is a bust.

We should not be afraid to call 'em when we see 'em.

Hi Marc,

I'm with you on this one:

We should not be afraid to call 'em when we see 'em.

I didn't mean to suggest that you meant all his stuff was fake.

By the way.....good show for bringing that info to light.

Members that are going to purchase from major dealers, or not so major for that matter, would be wise to type in the name of the dealer in the search box and see what can be found. A lot of these guys have been discussed in the past for selling fakes.

Those of us that have been here at the Forum awhile are very familiar with them and their antics.

Just for the record the badge above is a copy of the Steinhaur & Luck design.
