ALLGEMEINE SS OFFICERS CAP PICKED UP BY A 101st AIRBORNE VETERAN | REGIMENTALS

[@igorsvacic217]

Eight thousands lmao poor poor customers of yours

[@nicensleazy1892]

I just think the dealers now are just chancing their arms on pricing. Putting it out there with big price tags. But if people pay the prices, they will only increase. Things are only worth what people are prepared to pay.

[@Rob901]

Loved your catalogs years ago. I didn't know you were still around

[@theofarmmanager267]

Very interesting. I am not a collector in any way with my interests lying in modern history rather than articles. I am fascinated by the prices being achieved - as someone else has already said, supply and demand - and dismayed by other videos on YT detailing what seems to be the huge number of fakes being sold at fairs, knowingly, as originals. This guy knows his stuff clearly and can avoid the pitfalls that I would just fall into. That’s the benefit of years of experience. Here we are, 80 years since the start of WW2; are original items still being found? Are families selling off their parents/grandparents war clothing? Or is everything just really doing the rounds from collector to collector to seller to collector etc?

Beautiful Ehrenpokal, love mine!

[@newbeginnings8566]

Check around first as those prices are way, way above what I have seen in Europe.. Genuine items of course..

[@philipnestor5034]

I like the helmets that have battle damage. Especially the SS helmets, my father fought them in Warsaw. And Northern France.

[@danielgreen3715]

Absolutely Ridiculous just how much this stuff goes for now!! Cant believe that I could have picked up a German Helmet for a few quid as a Child ..What a missed opportunity for investments ! 50 yrs ago this stuff was two a penny

[@nlberglov8458]

Great stuff my friend!

[@tomsimpson5317]

I should have been collecting this kind of stuff

[@MrTuftynut]

Nice stuff and some items becoming rarer as you say, but the prices are so high with some dealers. I was also at the show and picked up two German helmets (DAK + Normandy camo half-basket) for much less after careful checking and negotiations.

[@militariareview208]

agreed, insane prices

[@AdamMann3D]

Pickel "how-ba" haube. And allgemeine is pronounced "al-ge-mine-eh"

[@bobkrohn8053]

Why does the speaker mispronounce the word decal? I looked and can find no reference that gives this pronunciation. Not in American English OR British English. It’s DEE-CAL not DEKEL Very annoying.

I've got adolf eichmanns uniform

[@LALC318]

Sure you do. Got it straight from under Walter Kanzler's table huh.

[@stevenanderson2104]

@@LALC318 got more than you think i sold a lot of my ss memorabilia

[@stevegribble3790]

It's beautiful stuff, but how do young and new collectors afford this stuff? All these items are for the rich.

[@bob334]

Start small. Maybe collect common awards and equipment, which are relatively inexpensive (but still have historical interest); and if you’re still collecting when you’re older, maybe consider purchasing some rare and expensive items such as the helmets.

[@Wilhelm-Von-Hohenzollern]

@@bob334 yes

[@igorsvacic217]

First of all, this is regimentals. They are ROBBING literally robbing ppl. Waaaaay overpriced

[@darrenbayliss3194]

Start with medals, and post card's like I did

[@militariareview208]

Good advice is to shop elsewhere, regimentals is well know for over charging for almost everything. Maybe that vintage shops needs some help to get out of the gutter?

[@66Bunn]

Nice collection. I’m a history buff (mainly WW II and American Civil War). I’ve always been interested in starting a collection. Unfortunately, I’ve always been afraid to be labeled “a Nazi”. There aren’t any white supremacists or Nazi sympathizers at these types of effects, are there? I’m assuming, just like everywhere else…there are crazies and lunatics in all walks of life.

[@terryschmidt8259]

good info

[@stuartblakeston3986]

Can we all please stop making comments about the prices Regimentals charge If you're not happy then buy from some one else These are all little pieces of history and if they help to keep the memories of what soldiers of all sides did then thats what really counts

[@carldietz7349]

Money for a time of hatred... !!

[@flash51050]

You can get this cap from China

[@michaeljames5708]

Are you interested in some rodeo belt buckles green in color Factory pack and I also have to Hermann Goering division raps 1 green 1 black if you're interested let me know I will send you some pics thanks

[@jayman7752]

Is that a portrait of Laurence fox behind you?

[@S1K-Ja]

I'm sorry am I the only one that gets annoyed when he says (Decal) I mean can you not say it or is something wrong with your speech.

[@philipmonaghan8267]

The correct term is "transfer".

[@stuartblakeston3986]

I didn't say but I am not connected to the company in any way I am just a collector who values the sacrifices made by those who are no longer with us

[@sergiocouto4854]

Hey bunny, which country do you live ? Next April, i gonna movie to Europe, i really wanna meet with you, i watch every vídeo recorded.

[@history_lives6749]

Deeeecal..... deeecal. Nobody knows what a dekul is.

[@6omega2]

Yeah, here in America we have a very different way of pronouncing "decal." LOL!

[@philipmonaghan8267]

Wrong!!! The term is "transfer"!

[@LALC318]

@@philipmonaghan8267 Yeah..... except no one uses "Transfer". Pretty much every collector and dealer at least in the US and Canada use "Decal".
