Scary Repro Armbands

[wewelsburg]

Gee these have gotten good,if these were convincingly soiled,youd never tell from PHOTOS these were fakes.Roundel field is ribbed perfectly,stripes and swastika are teh right size and material.Wow,a paper tag and they would fool me,unless in hand ofcourse.Beware!FOR A CLOSER VIEW SEE HERE. http://www.ioffer.com/i/wool-ss-offi...9?source=eiesi

yes good for a copy but the white stitching gives it away on these things mmmm

But they get better and better (unfortunately).
A few fakers eliminated their "big" mistakes and will produce better copies/fakes in the future. That`s not only by this brassards but also by the buckles for example. Just my two penny worth

I see problems and I do not even collect SS. They cannot get the exact same factory made period materials anymore. They will never be able to do it 100%

Listen Ive had 23 SS armbands ok,they look pretty good from the pics.You can sound astute and all,but for repros as I said IN PHOTOS not in hand they look good.What problems do you see Mr not collector of SS? I see feltish red "wool",and other than materials,no other problems,teh stripes,swastika and roundel all look convincing.These are not complicated things,either they look right or not,these look pretty good.I love how once something is a known fake,everyone says oh yes I know all the differences,if these were deemed real,teh peanut gallery would so,of course they are real blah blah.whatever,the post was for novice collectors to beware,obviously not for seasoned collectors ok?its just a pomi,noone is asking to prove them fake they ARE fake.
