I like it but it is not cheap !

[AntiqueWW2]

It is an original M44 and the Effects are original too. But that Price for an M44 without any solid Background i would never pay. I would pay the price for the Parts, Jacket and Effects and maybe put 10% plus because it looks nice. I come across a lot Tunics because this is my main Focus in Collecting and special at the SS Branch it is always a minefield to get a Tunic with the Insignias original on it and with solid Background Story where it comes from. And when you read Weitzes Description there is nothing about a Background or if the Effects are there since 44/45

One thing is clear.No one will ever know who sewed the insignia-SS

Hardly same old, tired lines will help Yun. He may have expected something more conclusive.

[AntiqueWW2]

What should be more conclusive then Jacket and Effects are original?? Noone on earth can tell if the effects are since the war on the Jacket, i doubt it and much more you can not say. And i do not think the lines are tired, because they are simple true. And special at the Tunic Sector and when there is a Dealer like Weitze involved.

I agree, it's not like he hasn't been caught out time after time adulterating or embellishing tunics, which-ever word you prefer.

The value is the sum of the parts, not a penny more and possibly slightly less as a messed with tunic.

Looks like a Heer issue M44 with SS insignia applied...But like the others say,when?

Well

Your also talking about somebody who has sold fake tunics that are made from scratch. And made very well.

If there would be a Award for the most correct realistic and truth Words about something.....you got it

That's what I was thinking.

[clint-magnum]

always the same terms :

90% of all SS tunics were "rebuilt"
