Ray175INF Posted August 25, 2018 Share #1 Posted August 25, 2018 Avoid this helmet, had it on my watch list a few months back saw it again this morning low and behold with TD insignia on the pot and liner Red paint removed and the name Jinx scuffed up to simulate wear. You'll see remnants of red paint on liner as it looks now, take note of the white paint or whatever on the buckle in both pictures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bugme Posted August 25, 2018 Share #7 Posted August 25, 2018 Gee, someone spent a lot of time destroying a nice liner and ruining a great plain pot. Worse, it was worth more before he messed with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morlok Posted August 25, 2018 Share #8 Posted August 25, 2018 I sent him a messege on eBay, with just a picture of the helmet before it was ruined. Let's see what he says...if anything... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1canpara Posted August 25, 2018 Share #9 Posted August 25, 2018 Good eyes, and like Scott said, what a waste of a nice liner and shell. Looks like it’s sold, or maybe they just ended it....here’s what it says on the listing now... Cet objet a été vendu. Découvrez d'autres objets similaires ci-dessous.

644td Posted August 25, 2018 Share #10 Posted August 25, 2018 Man I love TD helmets. Shame about this one. I will be parting with a real one very soon. Marty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morlok Posted August 25, 2018 Share #11 Posted August 25, 2018 I asked him a simple question..."What is this?", with a "before" photo. He responded "an US Helmet"!!! Then I told him what was done to it. Now the listing was pulled! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
