Thanks! Ok, so any marked M1/14 are fakes.
I will never understand why someone would want to fake one of these things. I just don't see the profit margin in it.
But I guess if they are made somewhere in China, there is always a profit margin.
Just read this now, two years later`!
No, do not forget that people in Eastern Europe are only earning 300 Euros or so a month - If they can find work.
In Greece 500-600 Euros, in Russia even less in places.
Everything is faked.
You know those huge brass, enameled fantasy badges that come from Poland today? Sold online for 5 euros or so.
That is alot of work to create a large brass fantasy with enamel to sell for only 5 Euros. But even at 5 bucks a pop, there is still a profit to be made.
And if you are faking higher class stuff like honour versions worth 100 and more, why not knock out lower class stuff with the same RZM details, get people thinking that the higher class is fine, because they saw it on the lower class, and "Who would fake lower class stuff"
And, even s**t paper is faked. So ask no more. Anything with a swastika on, is faked.
