anton67 Posted November 4, 2018 Share #1 Posted November 4, 2018 Our favorite expatriate is back selling his helmets on ebay. Here is the link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/173622128541?_trksid=p2380057.m570.l6026&_trkparms=gh1g%3DI173622128541.N34.S1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
72psb Posted November 4, 2018 Share #2 Posted November 4, 2018 I like the "100% original creation" line.Yeah,his. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cap Camouflage Pattern I Posted November 4, 2018 Share #3 Posted November 4, 2018 "A great looking front seam WWII medic helmet. The name on the helmet is period original. The medic cross looks like it’s right out of the war. It will only get better with age." I also like the photo where he has thrown it in a bush.

airborneguy44 Posted November 4, 2018 Share #4 Posted November 4, 2018 I wish there was a section on eBay for user to comment/ask questions so we could call him out so unaware buyers dont get fooled Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray42 Posted November 4, 2018 Share #5 Posted November 4, 2018 I saw this one also, it almost seemed to me that he tried using worse pictures of the name so that it wasn't so obviously the same helmet, and he must really think we are stupid if he thinks that bush will distract us from the medics cross which is clearly the same as the last time he tried to pass off this helmet. Sad thing is if you got it and removed the cross that wouldn't be that bad of a helmet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doyler Posted November 4, 2018 Share #6 Posted November 4, 2018 I wish there was a section on eBay for user to comment/ask questions so we could call him out so unaware buyers dont get fooled Start a new auction/listing...copy his pictures start it at $9 grand.In the descritption point out and detail the issue.If it gets pulled or flagged ...repost or have others repost it over and over and over and over...any listing the seller does do the same with each new item or user name.

Wake1941 Posted November 4, 2018 Share #7 Posted November 4, 2018 I agree with Doylers idea, Ive seen it done many times before. Having the auction photos will definitely catch people attention especially if the title is the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray175INF Posted November 4, 2018 Share #8 Posted November 4, 2018 Interesting, he used very similar verbiage as boogeyman repro used to describe a done up 34th ID Captain's lid. "It will only get better with age" in regards to the marking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill47 Posted November 4, 2018 Share #9 Posted November 4, 2018 I think it's interesting that he leaves himself wiggle room by saying that although the name on the back is "period original," the medic cross "will only get better with age." There's an "out" there if he's ever called on it. Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cap Camouflage Pattern I Posted November 4, 2018 Share #13 Posted November 4, 2018 For what it's worth if you google his name you will find a my space account of the same name. Someone who looks very much like the picture he posted on this forum and the picture he posted on ww2talk, who also wears gold chains with a cross on them and with the same haircut can be seen throwing up gang signs and pointing a handgun at the camera. His forum location, his ebay location, and his myspace location are within 60 miles of each other. The only discrepancy is one of the pictures is dated 2009, in another you can see in the shadow that he used a flip phone to take it, but on this forum he claimed he was 20 in 2017.

Grant G. Posted November 4, 2018 Share #15 Posted November 4, 2018 Its reposted now with a shoutout to the forum. Juvenile. Do you have a link? I'm not seeing it either under his current listings, or as eBay automatically does, hyperlinked in the details of the previously-ended listing.
