Valgor Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 why not team up. create a number of ebay accounts, win the auctions, notpay and leave bad reviews.I know, i'm a bit of a troublemaker...?so they say... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulsterman Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 Austrian bar:This one is interesting (post 61: KVKx/LS/LS/Anschluss/R CaC). It shows regulations/precedence sophistication not often found in make-a-quick-euro ripoff specialists.Are we certain it's a bad one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
webr55 Posted February 25, 2009 Author Share Posted February 25, 2009 This one is interesting. It shows regulations/precedence sophistication not often found in make-a-quick-euro ripoff specialists.Are we certain it's a bad one?This guy IS clever - using all sorts of old parts. But 1) the Austrian DA is insanely rare on medal bars like this and 2) - I repeat myself - "in this company I really wouldn't touch with a flagpole"...

Ulsterman Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 ah-understood-almost certain guilt by association.....It is VERY troubling that he has this level of knowledge....had I seen that at my local medal show i'd have snapped it right up thought myself lucky. sigh- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
webr55 Posted July 20, 2009 Author Share Posted July 20, 2009 This one is currently on ebay, a completely different case, different seller. I think it might have been ok once --- but to my mind, the ?M3K might have been added later. Supposed to be an officer candidate in 1917/18, but still got the officer decoration. Possible, but look at the relatively new ribbon... I'm not sure about this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
webr55 Posted July 20, 2009 Author Share Posted July 20, 2009 Backside. A Hungarian, yes, with Hungarian "Anschluss" medals from 1940/41. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
webr55 Posted July 20, 2009 Author Share Posted July 20, 2009 (edited) To me, it looks like the nice-looking ÖM3K has been squeezed in later. An "enhanced" bar. Edited November 11, 2017 by webr55 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saschaw Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 Offered by whom? I now have a quite long list (in mind) with "black sheep". Could you please PM me, to prevent problems... ;o( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hunyadi Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 This seller is quite prominent on Ebay and well, in Hungary as well. None of his bars are what I would call "original". The parts are original, but the set up is probably not. Recently one sold on Ebay with "new" ribbons, old medals and a communist era mounting bar....

Ulsterman Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 You know-he's getting better. Kelly's uses him for repro bars (which he sells as repros, but when he stops using the edge stitching and the new ribbons-and makes 5 medal bars that are reasonable.....he'll be creating real problems.
