              Man this guy is bad, I mean the tress is all screwed up around the top, it should be a smooth flowing fold and man what did he use day glow thread?
              Who is this guy and what auction.

                Kinda reminds me of another fellow who was booted of eban some time ago, either that or he has the same style and seamstress.

                  Fake!!!

                  But it says "original"...

                  This seller uses this forum for ideas on what to fake.

                    Here is another set I believe from the same seller. These were on Ebay a while back anyway.

                        Glen,

                        Those are from the same guy, he also just sold a pair of Nebel 51 straps.

                              Hi Tom,

                              Username peter-hassinger , he works mostly off ebay germany. Unfortunately dont know his real name but I have seen a few similiar straps surface on European sites. So they will be making the rounds, especially when some folks realize they arent any good.
                              Easy to spot though, the embroidery can be good to shoddy, usually not crisp. The Units chosen on average are rare. The tress is usually horrible, as are the underside stitching. Mix of good wool and repro on some. Also using bad slides as well. In the past I have seen a few good straps come from him, Medical, as well as a good set of infantry.
