Jim P Posted February 10, 2006 Author Posted February 10, 2006 Thanks Rick,when it arrives I will take better pictures and post them.I had to give $83 for it,is that a fair price?Thanks again,Jim P
Jim P Posted February 19, 2006 Author Posted February 19, 2006 The sixth place ribbon is indeed a red cross ribbon.I will try to get better pics of them later.Jim P
Stogieman Posted February 19, 2006 Posted February 19, 2006 Hi Jim, a fair price indeed as usually anything of this size on eBay brings quite a bit more than that price. The content seems irrelevent for eBay buyers..... in the US. "Size matters"
Jim P Posted February 19, 2006 Author Posted February 19, 2006 Yes I was very happy,and kind of suprized ,to get it at that price.It fits perfectly on my transitional tunic,Jim
