Thank you. I don't know why only some of the bad symbols are covered and not all.

Great video and even better when I/we can make out the prices as well. The prices (particularly on WW2 German items) are often crazy today, and when compared to just 5-10 years ago. So many fakes and repro items, as already mentioned, even being sold by dealers who should know better. Question is: Are these high prices sustainable with far less younger generation interest? Demographic at shows (and I have been to many in the UK) is largely middle-aged to older men.

Yes it was sickening. Some people get offended on history.

Mr. Reese or anybody familiar with/ I found 2 flags in my apt. dumpster one was an American flag, the other a Devil Dog while researching I see you can buy the Devil Dog on websights but they do not look at all like the one I found, the color for one and my flags were flown at a base I believe, they were weather beaten not bad but I figure the person who got to take these flags home must of either been a officer, or Rambo. Have no clue why they were in the trash since this marine unit made the Nazi's literally cry for there mommas. I found an old timer and passed the flags on to him bout 3 years ago. Never thought about them till I saw your channel. Nice work

I sure saw a lot of suspect SS memorabilia in the video. Its terrible how much reproductions have infiltrated our hobby. I stopped collecting SS items and sold the stuff I had and now Im just focusing on Luftwaffe and Heer memorabilia but I only buy from people I know and a forum that I belong to where all items that are sold are thoroughly vetted by the members and everyone knows each others information as far as identity so no fakes or repros get in.

I’ve stopped going to these. It’s either way too overpriced or fake. Like someone else said they’re getting better and better at faking that it’s a crap shoot.
