Of course they are, it pays them more bucks........ -
So is this a matter of the Pakistani's stealing photos and claiming this is the products that they can or do manufacture, or is it one that they actually made? I think probably the former, but it doesn't do too much good for the owner of the REAL piece to know that HIS tunic is being represented as something made in Pakistan!!!

Like the Chinese, the Pakistani's play fast and loose with copyright laws, outright ignoring them in some instances..
Right now , in Canada, there are over 1000+ lawsuits with the Chinese regarding copyright infringement and out right theft, with estimated (asking) damages thought to be in the multi-billion dollar range.
Also remember, there are North Americans and Europeans going over to these factories to get them to produce these items.The Pakistani's did not introduce these items on their own..Comment

Note the multiple transactions with the same buyers with private feedbacks or glowing reviews. Looks like shill bidding at its worst.Originally posted by CurtD View Post

tunic #25 is the same ?? (Go to this website and then select WWII Items, then WWII Uniforms. Look at Uniform #25, the SS-Hauptsturmfuhrer of Sanitatsdienst tunic... is that the same one that was on one of our threads? Very interesting!!!)
it looks like he ripped off the picture from oakleafGive a man an opinion and you feed him for a day,
teach a man to use the "search" function on the WAF and you feed him for a lifetime.Comment

Firstly will tell that all the time I found myself spam sent from Pakistan with offers to cooperation, by visiting theyr sites I found a lot of pictures (originals) stolen from my website, as examples of their work.
Secondary: Thework can be fine, but the thread, cloth, backing, glue will never be faked. Probably they can make all what you want, but their job is not for collectors or to be sold as the fakes, a lot of peoples in the world , like reenactors and the peoples who will have just a couple of cheap "nazy" sculls, this is the 98% of the buyers of "militaria", and some websites selling only that kind of stuff.
No any real collectors will buy the emroidery from Pakistan, due of wrong components used on themComment
