SS Oak Pattern Helmet Cover: Help Needed

[Larry F.]

Guys:

I'll be the first to admit that SS Covers aren't my area of expertise. Please provide your opinions/thoughts on the attached link.

It is my understanding that the dealer is quite reputable (The Collectors Guild) but am still seeking additional opinions on this cover.

I can't believe I'm saying this,

That actually doesn't sound so bad (yes I just said that).

I must be mad.

Chad,
Yea, isn't it amazing when we throw numbers like 6 or 8 thousand dollars around and follow it up with," that's not a bad price!" $8,000 for a helmet is crazy & I know that deep down inside but like it or not that is an acceptable price to pay for a decent (non m40) DD/SS helmet. When I say things like that my wifes jaw drops & she shakes her head!! If she only knew how much I have spent in the past year!! She'd kill me!! Also if she knew how much money I made selling off my Pionier gear over the same time frame, she'd expect our bank account to be larger than what it is!!

It is crazy and I guess so am I!

It was a very good price for a textbook 1st pattern oakleaf cover in that condition.
