Opinion on E/Bay uniform

[Ed Tainton]

I was thinking of getting a tunic to display badges etc. This one is on e/bay. What type is it ? Is is original? What price should I go for? Thanks in advance for help. I haven't a clue on German uniforms

Hi Ed,

looks like my Bundeswehr-Uniform (actual German Army Uniform).

Only a few bucks worth!

Best wishes

You can buy new West German Tunics on EBay for $25 that with a little help can pass as a pretty darn realistic WW II Heer or Waffen SS Tunic.

Of course most are listed as " Authentic WW II Third Rich Enlisted Mans Elite Unit tunic " and start at $350.

Seriously, there are often post war Swiss Army tunics on EBay sold as such and they would work fine too.

If you want to spend more, the top repro makers like Janke & Lost Battalions make uniforms for reenactors that you would be hard put to distinguish from the real thing.

I re-enact. I got my uniforms from "at the front" and Lost Battalions". They are at:

www.atthefront.com
www.lostbattalions.com

They both make super uniforms that are very difficult to distinquish from originals.
