Hello Guys,
I just finished talking to my friend in Czech (I know warning signs go up, but hear me out). The state is selling off its property and the appartment he's been living in is one of these. He has the option either to buy the apt or move out. I guess you can say, the apt. have turned into condominiums over night. Anyway, he has been collecting german militaria over 30 years and has a very nice collection. I'll scan a bunch of pics of what I took when I was there later(I have to wait untill the wife get's home, I don't know how to use it...). He has the usual and then the very rare. Because he'll need the money for the appartment, he offered me first dibs on the stuff. Unfortunatelly, the rare stuff I can't afford even when he gives me a deal on it. Next, he's asking me for help to sell for him. He guarantees everything and if it is not as stated, HE WILL DO A FULL REFUND, probably minus shipping. He is going to take pics of everything and send me a CD...not a very fast process but cheaper for him, since they pay the internet by the minute.
This is what I need of you, here are the SS items that may interest you. What he needs is how much can he get for the following items. Obviously, if he can sell it for more there or he doesn't get a good enough offer, he'll keep for another time.
Items:
-Dot 44 pants and jacket (size???)Very Good cond.
-SS enlisted buckle and belt
-1st Pattern SS Zelt Very good cond
-SS zelt later war (not sure of what pattern)shape is average
-Sniper Jacket (smock) Excellent cond but the sniper veil was cut out
-1st Generation SS helmet cover (he described it as the early models where the pattern was rolled by hand using wood blocks.The cover does and did not have the loops for the scrim.) Mint cond
-SS helm cover later period. Good cond
Again I like to mention that he will first offer pics for potential buyers. Please take a few minutes and put down what'd you think he should expect to get for these pieces. I know, that its hard to say with out pics and the cond, but put down what you'd THINK by what I describe....

.
for these items if they are in good condition. I have a small list of people that I will contact as soon as I have the pictures, so thank you for those that showed interest.
. But, believe me, most of the high end items, I can't afford even if he gives it to me for half price, so there will be a some nice stuff there.
