Thanks for cleaning it up a bit. I had intended to do that yesterday when I got here but--gladly saw it was done already

If you're in London's West End, this place is worth a visit ( not the cheapest, though ! ) :

Helmut Weitze. I know Carl isn't too happy with them right now, but I have had good experiences with them. I do think, as it is well known, it should be in this list.

Here is another dealer: http://www.ww-2militaria.com/.

Hi Stevin--weitze doesn't get my vote because I have been shafted by them as well as a few of my friends--so i'll not badmouth them but--will not send business their way. His problem is that he KNOWINGLY sells fake as real [img]graemlins/no.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/no.gif[/img]

All I can say when dealing with them in particular as well as jamie cross-- Let the buyer beware.

Volkbert--thanks for Peters site--i'd forgotten about him since I no longer visit wadf.

I've had only good experiances in dealing with Peter and he is honest about his wares.

Well here is another one: Paul Jarvis has a site named relics of the reich:
http://www.relicsofthereich.com/

I haven'tbought there but heard good things about it. Items are nice and prices seems fair.

C.Evans · #13 (**permalink**) July 16th, 2003, 11:25 PM

I've heard of them but never have seen their site. I don't know anything much about them but--a few things were priced fairly I thought--but is a bit expensive.

Erich · #14 (**permalink**) July 16th, 2003, 11:44 PM

Yep Peter has a couple interesting items I am thinking about....

C.Evans · #15 (**permalink**) July 16th, 2003, 11:51 PM

Are we getting the "buying bug" again?

What are ya thinking of buying? I've seen a few more KM items for sale as singles.

Erich · #16 (**permalink**) July 16th, 2003, 11:56 PM

Carl, I am thinking about a KM destroyer badge...

thoughts, price by itself ? Peter also had a dandy logbuch as well.

C.Evans · #17 (**permalink**) July 17th, 2003, 10:30 PM

Destroyer badge is a good KM badge. They aren't super expensive and are easy to get.

Price ranges on them from about $115.00 to about $250.00 depending on condition. With award document--add about $80.00 or so. Mine is mint with the maker of F.O. for Friedrich Orth--which is one of my favorites as well as W.H. and Assmann & Sohn. I also like Schwerin of Berlin and I like all these makers much more better than the more popular C.E.Juncker badges.

F.O and W.H. I think both are firms in Vienna. I know F.O. is in Vienna. [img]smile.gif[/img]

who has the docs for the badge Carl..... militaria boyz ? thanks for the makers and prices

C.Evans · #19 (**permalink**) July 17th, 2003, 11:52 PM

Peter has one for sale on his site that is a grouping of Destroyer badge and destroyer badge award document for $400.00--I thought htis was the one you were talking about buying and went for a look-see in Peters site and I only found one Destroyer Badge for sale--so I naturally assumed you were wanting this one.

Erich · #20 (**permalink**) July 17th, 2003, 11:58 PM

yes that was the one but thought I would ask the experts here on the board. some other things have come up today......as always

so who knows what is going to happen now.

~E

C.Evans · #21 (**permalink**) July 18th, 2003, 12:03 AM

It's a VERY good one--and getting a harder to get award doc with it is a plus. If I had the $400.00 clams to shell out for it--I'd do so in a heartbeat. [img]smile.gif[/img]

I hear ya--I hear ya--I just had to shell out $130... something clams today for two new tires.

There goes my computer money
