Wehrmacht tunic, value?

[Juliusheide]

Hi.

Consider buying this tunic... what is it worth? what is it fair to pay for it?
Thanks
Best Peder

I'm not sure about those collar tabs, maybe movie prop ones? Better photos of the collar tabs would be helpful. I like the looks of that salty original tunic!

I think I would hold off until you get some more possitive feedback. I just worry about the lack of support straps for the belt holes and the four horizontal slits in the lining. Look forward to other observations.

Correct for an early tunic. The damage on the shoulder sucks though. Might make a decent representaive peice if restored properly, and if the price is not too high.

Peder,
Prices vary. By what I see it looks original, would be nice to see under the collar and some close ups of button holes, pocket, and lining. Price for a complete tunic in good condition with all the insignias would go for $1000 to $1800 depending on branch and rank. Since this has missing insignia/ shoulder boards and is damage, I would say between $200 to $400. The reason is to get the original insignias and shoulder board will cost $150 to $250. You have to have them attached and probably wants to fix that shoulder. Your almost to $700 and don't forget you have a fantasy uniform (uniform placed together with original parts) which has lower value. The bottom line is how much you like it. That is how I started by buying a strip uniforms and bringing it back to life. It is like putting together a model.

But...

Bill,
Schutzpolizei already say it, this "said" M33/40 is normal, as Feldbluse 34, 35, 36, 40, and 41 haven't the late short support straps but a long one system of suspender that fit in the 4 slits you see in the lining !

Yeah, and finding the belt support straps are nearly impossible, and probably the most expensive part, worth probably the value of this particular tunic!
