I agree

Hey guys,

Yes, I agree with you 100%, the mistake could have been a lot more costly.

I've spent twenty years in the police patch collecting hobby and we are dealing with our own reproduction epidemic. But on average you are only talking about a minor hit, although E-Bay has defintely up'ed the chances to get hit hard. Police badge collectors have run into the same problem, as TR collectors, with the same monetary issues. But that was one of the reasons I avoided that area of collecting.

The dilemma facing me right now is do I risk purchasing at shows, with my limited knowledge, or try to find a reputable dealer to go through exclusively?

Ah the learning curve, gotta love it !!!

Yeah, I think that for the time being, that is the best choice for me. I have already ID'd a few pieces there that I am interested in and have contacted the parties.

I would really like to begin to add some nice pieces to my collection.

Thanks,
andrew
