Hi all, I have been looking recently at many Gausieger. I have seen a nice range of prices, some of the abussive, some of them really cheap. So, just to be on the safe side with th prices, and also trying not to contribute with the "fool" prices that the III Reich items are starting to get. I...

When I was out fishing on the internet last week I got this buckle as bycatch, as the fishemen say. The seller wrote it was sandblasted, and I have a feeling that it has been repainted with a matt silver colour. Is it an original? I have no idea. If it is original I will sell it here. If not...

Hi guys! Today i get this BDM Achievement Badge with the very low number 20. The badge is marker marked with M1/15 and RZM. I think this badge is a silver one, because you find rests of the silvering on the surface. The underground is like copper or buntmetall...but please take a look on that...
