I don't know about that I recall Tom Hansen being banned for reselling a rounder on ebay right after the proof on those came out. that was off forum.

What I meant Sal is that he has customers who will buy from him regardless of this forum and the news of all the fakes. He has already sold three SS uniforms after this thread was posted. The addicts do not care as long as they have their fix easy to obtain.

True, so true!

I still think he should be booted from the forum, whether it effects his business or not

Exactly!

In two-three years this steadily growing bubble will burst, it´s like a natural law.

And like hyped real estate.

I disagree. German TR items have a mystique ! There is an insatiable desire for German items, particularly SS. Check around, the items are super and prices are high. Plus, they are selling ! The bursting bubble is nowhere in sight !

The bubble will burst for the artificially inflated priced common items or items which have 1% of doubt attached to them. Genuinely rare and exotic items will always have their premium 'value'.

Yes, I have seen severe drops in common items, but increasing prices on the rarest items. Some things are not touched by Market Fluctuations.

Yes, I agree.
You could even say that some people prefer to put their money in high end militaria items, not in s(t)ocks, real estate or gold.

If he´s to be booted, he´s not the only dealer to be so! This will never happen...

[jabnus]

Are we talking about Kai now or Thorsten?


Regarding the prices: yes some have dropped but rare stuff seems to command higher prices than ever! The only people who care about prices are the ones who collect to invest instead of collecting history.

It will be a good day when the bubble bursts. There is so much that i still want but can't all afford, would be good for our collections if the prices dropped!

Yes, indeed, especially SS items have a mystique! You are correct and I absolutely agree with your statement!!

Interesting because I was going over this thread again and noticed on the Heinz Macher tunic the award loops on the breast do not make sense if you put an Ek and another award on it they would overlap one another the loops aren't far enough apart. Hastily done.

That's nuts common items are selling people won't rape their bank accounts anymore imo.
It'll be good get the investor types out the hobby...

Common items ? Remember when you could get a nice PAB or IAB for $75. usd ? Now nice badges are a deal @ $175. and real nice one @ $295. plus !

So what do you think a nice SS helmet or collar tabs should sell for ?

A genuine item is a genuine piece of history. Supply is limited and demand is great !
