Just thought this would make a few people laugh

Saw it recently listed for sale at an auction company that we know all to well...

Not original. IMO...

[istra63]

What makes you think its not original?

[Ludwig]

It looks brand new. I know that, that alone doesn´t make it bad, but that along with a certain gut feeling...
Besides that, the shoulder straps are for Hauptsturmführer and the collar tab for Obersturmführer

In this case hard to determine an assessment with one photo.
This is a 'maybe' uniform with one photo to go on.
As for non corresponding rank insignia, this was not that uncommon in the field. Availability of insignia and its associated components was not always at hand for a front line soldier. However this uniform does look fresh.

What auction company?

[Felix]

Hh?

[istra63]

Don't think Hh has anything listed in this field yet Felix.

[Felix]

So, could someone enlighten the rest of us which auction company it is? And there might be more photos? (we know that HH usually are very greedy with too many pictures)

Cheers

And this photo tells a lot; A repro eagle with a common and rather cheap original Dachau version sleeve shield.

Can't tell from photo: Is the collar tab an EM upgrade (with silver piping) or is it a flatwire tab?

[istra63]

Is it possible to have a close-up of that tab?
