ss373/43

[dread]

hi iam new here and so not sure if i am doing the right thing,
i live down here in oz were ss items are very rare and way to expencive
so when i saw this http://www.cobbsamurai.com/medals.htm
the skull and eagle ss373/43 for $85 aud each,thought it was too good to be true however in doing my online research i ran across this
http://www.snyderstreasures.net/pages/sshatinsignia.htm
again with the same ss373/43 for $999 usd a set

so if you are going to get your ss ( or ww2 german) items online who deals with the real thing?

thanks dread

thanks lots of good info
i supose i should have asked with all the repos online were is a good place to look online for the real thing?

The only online dealer I've seen with a steady supply of authentic ss visor cap insignia is kai winkler. Snyderstreasures is not the place to find them.

[ReichsHeini]

Authentic pieces usually come up one at a time. They are quickly bought up once listed on internet dealers.

I have purchased authentic TKS and eagles from
Collectors Guild in Canada
Peter Jenkins - SSBW in England
Peter Lukacs in Sweden
Kai Winkler - Germany (some repros mixed in on his site)
Helmut Weiss - Germany

Good luck!

Avoid Charlie Snyder at all costs!!! Even if he had something authentic I wouldn't buy it from him just on principles!

[SScollector]

GMSS-0173 is the only original on Snyder's website and it is sold.

Best,
Chris
