Get Robin Lumsden to have a look at that medal. They are being faked in enormous numbers by 'the club'

I think you are right! The known seller with the same fakes on ebay. I think he has some different accounts. Don has already listed the seller in this thread:
http://www.wehrmacht-awards.com/foru...d.php?t=482701
PS: Really strange is, that people buy these things! Normally they should be more sceptical, if somebody has always the same rare things for sale. Every week again.......

Hope and optimism are powerful things. They can even overcome expirience and knowledge. That's why guys that have gotten divorced and lost all thier stuff in the process still end up getting married again, sometimes for a third, fourth, fifth time.....

Dear Don,
Which are the indications that badge machigunner would take to to be fake?
You would have some book that can guide on these medals and badges?
Regards
Flávio.
