yes its a nice used but not abused one

[martin3]

Indeed a very nice one, and there's still a lot of the original laquer on it.
Beautiful!

But you said you bought it on eBay.
Is Ebay loosening their German militaria policies or are you still lucky if one auction slips through the checking?

Best regards,

ooh i feel better now thanks for the reply its been a worry as always buying of ebay,but you have put my mind at rest cant wait to get it, rgds dave

[nopoop]

I've sold quite a few on ebay. Had only one pulled. The only decal allowed is a National. Any other decal even if the offending portion is covered as in a Luft decal with just the birdy showing will be pulled. Show no decals and you won't have a problem.

I heard Ebay employees (using alias accounts) sometimes ask sellers to send them better pics of items you are selling.
If you then send them uncensored pics showing decals with swastikas or runes, your auctions will still be pulled.

Is this a myth or has anybody experience?

Damn, all that trouble just because of a helmet.
If you sell a Roman legionair helmet everybody starts drooling, even non-militaria enthousiastics.
Seems everybody forgot what the Romans did with Christians, Jews and the rest of the world.
Except for the lions everybody sufferd from the Romans!

So what's the difference?
A few centuries?
