Why do you want German stuff they lost both wars badly.

 

[Shawn H]

They are definitely legit!!! Prices on some items are a little more than others since they work on consignment for some items and have to add their percentage to it. They are well known in the WW2 Axis collecting community.

As Shawn says, they are very well known within the militaria community. Their prices are high, but their items are legit and condition is usually better than described.

They also offer an unconditional lifetime guarantee of authenticity, I think they are well regarded in the collecting field.

Please just go away. You obviously don't have much of a clue.

Keep in mind their prices are USD.

Ouch, I had actually sent an e-mail earlier today to order 2 items form them, but had not noticed that the prices are in US dollars. That is a deal breaker for me. Thanks for the heads up!

I bought an original Dunkelblau tunic from the 1890s off their website a few years ago. They charge in USD so it may not be the best time to buy right now.

I've dealt with this company before; good people. I found that the items are described well.

IMA is also a great company to deal with.

You are literally walking into a minefield trying to get a legit SS helmet.
Check this site....you will be scared to buy.

The ruptured duck has a good reputation as well, though his prices are USD too.

Bendeco must be some kind of troll with his recent posts.

Dealers aren't so great man.
All champagne SS helmets were just outed as fakes. Dealers have sold them for decades. Dealers pass along as much or more garbage then average people. Best bet is to join a helmet forum, make yourself known, then start advertising you want one, and pick one up that has been shown on the forum and accepted as real.

Solid and best advice right there. I have gotten bogus #### from dealers before upon closer inspection or new info that comes out.
