    Jupp, i am afraid you spot on. It would be that easy, no need for any Drama, just a Parcel, FedEx and in a couple Days all is resolved. For me Ben is the only one i trust with his Knowledge. On top of that, he is fair and very honest. But nope...better bash him then use his help

      Non-believers were already not very numerous in this discussion. There are 3 for 15 believers (in the 2 threads).
      Since I launched this new challenge, the candidates do not seem to be in a hurry. It's curious.
      I fear that you will find yourself alone in the Kindergarten playing marbles.

      This approach has 3 very specific goals

      1) The funds raised will serve a good cause.
      2) It will silence bad tongues
      3) It will allow my SS crusher to regain his dignity, and me too.
      The crusher can only be inspected at my place.
      No question of sending it, too much risk.
      I won't sleep anymore.

        Man, i give a Crap where what is used. Send the Hat to Ben and he will tell if real or not, anything else no one cares. You just can't stop, you wanted a Bet...you got it, and still the bla bla not stops. If you want, i pay you the shipping that you send it to Ben....all better then keep going here with this Nonsense.

          Some would have liked to have it. Luck does not smile on everyone at the same time. I was not alone at the time, the auction rose very quickly, very high. I've been looking for one for 50 years. It is therefore not tomorrow that I will sell it. Despite some very attractive offers I have already received during this discussion.
          Fortunately, there are still competent collectors.
          I also received a lot of PM from people who are disgusted to see how things are progressing on certain parts of this forum.

            This one has run its course. I am closing it so the vitriol does not continue.

              Ben has asked me to reopen the thread so it is now open.

                Well, it's not a bad new. Thank you Ben. We are not here to shoot each other, just to talk about things that we are passionate about.
                I was also going to ask the moderator for it to.
                I await comments. I only want to deal with competent people.
                We have just seen a killing of another SS cap recently by the same guys.
                For those who do not know or who essentially want to run their post counter, stay away.
                It should be a constructive discussion.
                I received a lot of PM from people who are disgusted to see how things are progressing on certain parts of this forum.
                To be honest, the rage that some people want to destroy everything seems incomprehensible to me. This is really not good publicity for the forum. I have never encountered such relentlessness on other parts of the WAF.
                I start from a good intention by showing something very unusual and I absolutely want to defend it with force.

                  pieand, no one would destroy anything. Those posts you don´t like are given from other collectors with their honest opinion and knowledge. I am sure when you know those collectors back ground you would give them more respect.

                  Advice was given to you and for my view you should follow the advice to send it to the real expert. Otherwise the tread is not worth to step further.
                  You also don´t need to count who like it or who doesn´t like it. We have seen in the past 10 like an item and one doesn´t like and was right with his opinion.

                  It´s also not worth to give any instuctions what you like to read and what someone need to posts, on the other end you write "I absolutely want to defend it with force". Not sure what you expect then from other collectors.

                  When you insist with force to defend your crusher, why you ask then for opinions and go further into discussions about this visor.

                    I don't know about rarest but here is the one I always wanted. I last espied it at the Army Museum in the Parc du Cinquantenaire in Brussels in 1979. Gee, I wonder what happened to it?

                      Well, If Ben asked the reopening of the thread, I thought it was to bring something new. And since, nothing happened. So, I'm waiting for Ben's comments.

                        I asked for this thread to be opened again simply to state I would still be happy to inspect this cap and supply a detailed and unbiased report of my conclusions.
                        Actually, I'm happy to provide this service to everyone free of charge so long as they agree to pay for return shipping.

                          A very generous gesture Ben! This would take away all doubts and could bring this far too long thread to an end.

                              BenVk, we are on a discussion forum right? So I ask myself the following question, why don't you want to comment on this SS crusher first. If like the 3 others, you think it is not original, I don't see the point of sending it to you either.
                              Something intrigues me Ben, 5 years ago, you say:
                              - "Some very sloppy stitching around the sweatband which I wouldn't expect with an erel which needs to be studied closely. The rest looks good from what I can see but a hands on is definitely needed with this one.
                              I'd be happy to inspect the cap if you want to send it to London ".

                              Today you say:
                              - "This crusher has numerous red flags IMO which I tried to point out back in 2015 but my offer to inspect it personally was never taken up so that was that".
                              I would be happy to point out those red flags in detail but somehow I doubt that will be acceptable to the owner.

                              It all seems contradictory to me

                              I also ask you to explain to me what brings you to these conclusions.

                              So this will be a discussion between the two of us
                              Response guaranteed.
                              To simplify matters, I do not want unnecessary comments.
                              I won't answer it anyway
                              I think Ben is tall enough to take on the challenge.

                                Even when Ben will find out its a put together Crusher you would never accept his answer. Thats all about it for you as you are afraid about his findings. Propably you know its a Franky cap, thats what it looks to me with all your harsh postings.
