JamesM Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 Does anyone have a clue as to what the going price for a mid to late war M38 Fallschirmjager helmet, with no decal, is?To give you an idea, the same as can be see on page 69 in the Robert Kurtz book, German Paratroops!Cheers,James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul R Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 Hi James,Sorry for the late reply. I have seen this type of helmet(untouched) go for prices starting at 3500 dollars. Not cheap at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesM Posted July 5, 2006 Author Share Posted July 5, 2006 Hi Paul,Thanks for the reply! Yes, they are getting up there in price. I did some looking and have seen them well over the 4K mark. I'll have to part with the one that I have and would like to know what to put on it. I imagine if I wait another week or two the price will go up again! I'm just glad that I obtained my Para stuff before prices went mental!Cheers,James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul R Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 Unless I find one in a yard sale, I will never have one. I cannot bring myself to pay 3500(at least) for the helmet! Bill Shea is starting to sell them for 10,000 dollars!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
