I would like to hear from the collector who bought this shoulder strap from Collector's Guild. I would like to "make him an offer he can't refuse".

Thank you for the replies.
I DID contact Peter immediately, and asked him to put me in contact with the
buyer. He advised that he was unable to do that.
Knowing that there are a number of Shoulder strap collectors here on WAF,
I decided to post here.
I do not have an example of this strap (Heeresschule fur Hunde und Brieftaubesdienst), hence my ardent interest.
I gladly accept SINGLE straps especially when I lack that particular cypher.
Again, does ANYONE know who now owns it?
While I'm at it, does ANYONE own GD EM/Junior NCO straps for
Feldgendarmerie or Kradschutzen?
I thank in advance all those who repond to my quest.

Ah that is too bad. it was quite a set: both a chain stitched unteroffizier and metal cyphered nco with proof tags! Well it is a good sign that three have shown up recently, so you should be able to find one sometime.
Probably better that you did not get it though, as then you would have had everything and stopped collecting

Had I known about them, I would have.
There are just too many auctions & websites to follow.
Do you know who bought those?
I'd really like to own one!
Enjoy your evening;
Chris

OK, let's try this again....
I'm looking to contact the person(s) that:
1) bought this strap from Collector's Guild
OR
2) bought the ones on Hermannn Historica's auction (per info from Jerry)
If the buyer wishes to remain anonymous, I will honor that decision
BUT..
They may want to consider what I would give up in trade for this piece.
I have been known to trade SS, Fallschirmjaeger and panzer/Stug pieces for a strap I don't have.
Only a dedicated collector of Heer shoulder straps would place a high value
on one from the "School of Dog and Pidgeon Training".
I DO, and I'm ready, willing and able to talk to the owner(s)..
I'm sure I'll have trade material that they would like MORE than this strap!
(and, of course, money is available too, and immediately - "payment plan" is not necessary)
I will be at the SOS in a few weeks, so look me up (Chris Varrichio)
Thanks

I had saved this photograph from a magazine and remembered this thread searching for the buyer of the straps pictured in the first post. The ones depicted in the magazine are m-40 type (field gray) with the same ciphers. They are shown being worn by signals personnel who specialized in Pigeon borne messages:Attached Files
