    Epic stupidity : will you laugh or cry ?

    Hi,

    sometimes i want to stop collecting just because of that sh*t...
    I know that many topics exist on the WAF about those fantasy ID cards, but this one was too much for me...

    https://www.delcampe.net/fr/collecti...527564158.html

    (the picture is the one of Ludwig Kepplinger, the first Waffen-SS Ritterkreuztrager, stop laughing !).

    You will think "well those five "collectors" wanted to get a nice fantasy SS Charlemagne item" ?

    Well check "jackydu79" (nota : for the foreign people, "jacky" is a surname with a negative meaning in France linked with individuals into car tuning) account there :

        These ID cards pop up on every militaria forum on Facebook with the question "is it real?". Well you can guess how much laughs they every time get.

        There was even a guy or admin who had bought such crap for 150€, he kept believing by high and low it was original because he got it in a Romanian museum and the curator AND the minister of Culture gave a signed CoA. Well me and a friend were banned because we gave him facts and couldnt stop laughing.

        You would believe that, if you collect German or starting, they will have basic knowledge of how a Soldbuch or Wehrpass would look like.

                SS and fake stuff go together like cream and raspberry jam on an english muffin.

                  When I first started out (18 months ago) I bought some tabs, a cuff title, and visor skull and eagle set from a guy. All claiming to be legit of course. I traded him a VERY high end pistol for all those goods. Although In hind sight my trade wasn’t worth half of what those items would have been worth if legit. Needless to say I don’t collect SS stuff anymore.

                              but would rather have a faint REPRO imprinted into the paper back,
                              pretty scary out there these days.
