PKeating Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 I recall this group from around five years ago, when Chris showed it on another forum. This group was recently offered for sale again by Niemann but with all sorts of accessories that do not seem to have been part of it when Chris had it. including the cap, dagger, NKS and at least a dozen other items. It also looks as if the genuine photo of the man has been removed to allow a load of other photos to be added. What a shame! The group has not been enhanced but irretrievably damaged, unless the photo of the recipient can be found and restored to its rightful place. But who is going to admit to being the venal swine who did this in the mistaken belief that it would make it more interesting or valuable? There really are some abject cretins in and around Third Reich collecting. A group like this needed no 'improvement'! PK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Boonzaier Posted February 19, 2009 Author Share Posted February 19, 2009 :-((I sold it to a collector who promised to treasure and respect it. I would be interested in who sold it to Detlev. I dont think Niemann would have gone to the trouble, like most dealers he sometimes splits groups for an easy sale, not "Add" to them.This is not only a historical sin, but a big stupidity on the seller. He must have known that the internet is small, that either here or on WAF someone would have noticed this.If it was the guy I sold it to... I urinate in his Pasta!

Chris Boonzaier Posted February 19, 2009 Author Share Posted February 19, 2009 Seems to have been a treasure for all of 10 months then.Original to the group was a dogtag, medal bar, DKiG, EK1 with broken pin, Repaired Bronze panzer with no hook, award docs with a photo of the man in the Sports badge book, a book about the campaign in Greece... :-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
