Who says the hobby is tanking--looks at the prices they are willing to pay for the fakes.....

Well, I guess they only get more ignorant in spite of the fact that this forum has been in existence for what, 15 years now?.....

Funny it is when you have at a show a table and people you never seen bevor like to explain you, why ever they do this, why your item (who is 1000% wratime made) is a copy, than i everytime think now this one is on of the people who bidd on the crap on ebay.............

Very usefull to know - if I ever need to get rid of my $10 East German visors, I can just ruin them and ask $150 instead of throwing them away...

I sent the seller an email, stating that this cap is a repro. Needless to say, no response.
