speagle Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 I thought it was illegal anyway to purchase these (the real ones). True??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulsterman Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 In the USA-yup. There are a couple of FBI agents tasked with tracking them down. They even try to take away ones that collectors have had since the 1960s, although its not illegal to own one, merely transfer it for consideration.

Bernhard H.Holst Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 Hello readers: In the past there were offerings by German dealers, some with good provenance . I have abstained from purchase because of residence in the States and not being quite clear of the legal aspects. Even with intention of donation to a museum. The prices were not exceptionally high though I could not furnish an exact figure. Bernhard H. Holst Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulsterman Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 If you bought it overseas and brought it into the USA -as happened to some poor colelctor who got set up in Canada a few years back, you could get nabbed. however, if you did it with the express purpose of donating to a museum and transferred ownership , say via a UCC filed with the state before delivery of the MOH, then they will praise you and give you a tour of the FBI museum and a free FBI baseball cap.
