But what if they are not originals and fakes, and you are just believing what you see because you feel it is original? Where is the prof?
How do you guys argue with the sceptics in order to make them believe? Collecting SS is not a religion for believers, its about hard facts and what can be proven.
So far NOTHING has come forward in favour. Zero.....
There are even old chairs in Sweden that looks like that. So if I brand them SS they are originals? No, I dont think so. As you stated earlier you got irritatetd on members not taking this seriously, and now you are guilty of the same. Where does that leave you?
No offence, but prof is needed.

Sounds like a lot of you guys like these chairs and believe they are original. But how many of you would pay the market price for them if they where a KZ used item? SS items from any KZ would sell for top dollar if you could prove they where what you say they are. Now would you guys feel strongly enough about them to pay that kind of money? I don't think I could even with everything looking good and the mark being proven as a good one. So if you want to put me in that scepic group that's fine. But I couldn't spend big buck on these chairs just to easy to fake and sell for big bucks.

speculation
someone mentioned the word "speculation." Unless you have concrete proof, speculation is all anyone - from any viewpoint or opinion - can offer at this time.
To pretend otherwise is foolish. Even with the evidence presented, you are still making leaps in connecting the dots - all "speculative" to me anyhow. So, what I read is, my opinion is wrong and speculation but yours is correct???
not trying to offend anyone so don't take this too seriously:
I find it humourous that the same people touting these as genuine prob. would not put their money where their mouth is should they come across these on a dealer site.
Too much risk in my opinion and they are not that attractive either!
I'd much rather have a chair from Wewelsburg if one could be found than one of these!

they could go quite nicely with that SS rubbish bin that was on here recently

I haven't been on the WAF in a long time, but I ran across this post on the SS chairs.
I visited the museum at Mittelbau-Dora in July '11, and they had a Waffen SS wall locker on display. If I remember correctly, the wall locker had identical or very simlar Waffen SS markings on it as the chairs have. In theory, it was from the camp.
Unforunately, I didn't get any photos of it...I'm not for sure you could take photos in the museum. There is a photo of the wall locker in the exhibition booklet, but it's not taken close enough to see any markings.
IMO, I think the chairs are probably good based on the typical markings that I've seen on other German mililtary furniture.
