                      UK prices ??? Andy to tell you the truth, I'd now only buy from the States and Europe the pound to foreign monies exchange is far better than buying in the UK.

                      Well that is on 'big money' awards, 200 quid or more, you don't get much for that today do you . But 200 pounds sterling is $400 or there about...and I know where I'd rather spend my money.

                      So I can't really help on the UK prices as I'm not really conversant or up to date on reality market prices...sorry mate.

                        Is it my eye's or the pin on the Flak......it looks like a 'drill bit' look closely there's almost a spiral thread down the stem. I haven't been drinking either !

                          Hi Andy,

                          IMO the Bomber Clasp is good and in nice condition. It's not a deal but priced OK, maybe a little on the high side.
                          I don't like the Radio Op badge at all. Looks like an Assmann wreath to me, I'd steer clear.
                          The flak looks OK, also maybe a little high. Flak cases are fairly rare though, wouldn't you say Marcus?

                            They all seem a tad expensive to me but I am used to local German prices.
                            Like Marcus and Tim I like the boxes. Flak boxes are quiet hard to find ( not as hard as Paras though).
                            Like Tim I would be a little suspicious of the AG/RO. It does look reasonable and the SW 68 mark is acceptable on late war badges but it is by no means a classic Juncker is it?

                              Hey Tim & Skippy,

                              Yes the Flak boxes of the hard hinged type are more desirable than say the blue cardboard non hinged type. There are lots of variation's in the hard top with some designations more harder to attain than others.

                              Yes it's a worthy the Flak case of this type I'd agree with you Tim and Skip. Para is hard yes..as you well know (you bugger Skip...how many do you have) but with the exception of the two P/O & Aircrew, I reckon the Luft Ground Assault is a bitch to obtain more than anything !

                              The Flak badge though ??

                              Look at the pin, is that correct can you see what I mean by it looking vaguely like a 'drill bit' ???

                              And do you think it's been re-sprayed at some time ? The over all finish isn't convinving to these novice learning eye's ???
