Gordon Williamson Posted May 28, 2008 Author Share Posted May 28, 2008 Which looked rather like this better quality fake in terms of its construction/weave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon Williamson Posted May 28, 2008 Author Share Posted May 28, 2008 No bidders - probably put off by the poor quality image looking just like the fake.Which was good news for me, as it was a perfectly genuine rarer pattern of woven Feldgendarmerie band.

Gordon Williamson Posted May 28, 2008 Author Share Posted May 28, 2008 The fake copies the weave pattern quite well, but the lettering on the real thing is much sharper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stogieman Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 eBay can be a wonderful place if you know what you're doing.... But for sure it's not the place for the newer collector to try and build a collection. He/she will pay a heavy toll for inexperience! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
