Austin_Militaria Posted March 27, 2017 Share #1 Posted March 27, 2017 I am not one for promoting shopgoodwill, but this helmet has surfaced. It is really hard to tell by the pictures. It seems to good to be real. I don't like the wear around the rim, but not much on the rest of the helmet. I am sure real or not it will go for more then what I would pay.

stealthytyler Posted March 27, 2017 Share #4 Posted March 27, 2017 The wear is fine around the rim. That is normal and expected on an earlier helmet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stealthytyler Posted March 27, 2017 Share #7 Posted March 27, 2017 How much do you think a helmet like this is generally worth? $1,500+? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill47 Posted March 27, 2017 Share #8 Posted March 27, 2017 I'm not at all convinced. I would need better--and more--photos before I'd be interested in bidding for this one. Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1canpara Posted March 28, 2017 Share #10 Posted March 28, 2017 With Bill on this one. +1 ....it's exciting to see a cool lid like this but I'd need way more assurance before jumping in... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Austin_Militaria Posted March 29, 2017 Author Share #11 Posted March 29, 2017 Now it will. From my experience on shopgoodwill this will go for more then it should, even without posting here it on the forum. So good luck to ya.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blacksmith Posted March 29, 2017 Share #12 Posted March 29, 2017 Yep, already jumped up $250. I'll pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkash23686 Posted March 29, 2017 Share #13 Posted March 29, 2017 if real still not THAT expensive. But still have my doubts. It does look like it has the medics numbers on the top which is sort of a good sign. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USMC-RECON0321 Posted March 29, 2017 Share #14 Posted March 29, 2017 Not the greatest pictures, but it looks like the chinstraps have been replaced. Looks like box stitching. Anyone else see that? Troy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USMC-RECON0321 Posted March 29, 2017 Share #16 Posted March 29, 2017 Honestly the thing that bugs me the most on this helmet is the color of the roundels, they just don't look like actual aging from white to yellow, but more like they were actually painted that color to look like 70 year old white paint. same as the numbers written on top, everything appears to have aged exactly the same, which is not how it works. This is a tough one to judge from those pictures. Troy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anton67 Posted March 29, 2017 Share #17 Posted March 29, 2017 I can't believe that someone would shell out $750 (or more) for the helmet based on those photos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMinistryOfAviation Posted March 29, 2017 Share #18 Posted March 29, 2017 I can't believe that someone would shell out $750 (or more) for the helmet based on those photos. My greatest pet peeve... And the more rare and expensive the helmet - the worse the pictures become.. -Jeremy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasonm Posted March 29, 2017 Share #19 Posted March 29, 2017 I can't believe that someone would shell out $750 (or more) for the helmet based on those photos. They will send additional photos if requested. I gotten them before but not on this helmet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralCheese Posted March 29, 2017 Share #20 Posted March 29, 2017 I'm not convinced, especially with the shininess of the red and the discoloration of the white. I agree, much better pictures are needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
