Well, this one has already been discussed in another thread:

Isn't this basically a consignment/auction forum??

Thanks, Jacques--I missed that thread. Anyway, lets keep this one going here when anyone spots a questionable (or even obviously fake) visor.

There are some legitimate dealers there--I am surprised they would allow their stuff to be posted along side this junk, especially 2 Jankes.

It's a hard site to figure out; I had not seen it before, but paid the $20 for a good look two hours ago.

There's a LOT of junk there, along with some decent stuff.

Zero tolerance for fakes? Depends on who's vetting! What vintage militaria site says anything different?

I think Pete Whamond's www.germanmilitaria.com is the only reliable consignment site; he knows his stuff 98% of the time.
