Dennys, in North America, even for original items such as the AH bronze, no one, and i mean no one, pays the kind of prices you quoted.

You can find this item, and better, for much less money due to the number of high quality artifacts brought home by American servicemen.

I have a bust that is one meter high and weighs 25 pounds, that came out of a municipal building in Berlin, and cost me last year, all of $400.00

Even for original items of the one's shown, no one will ever pay $9000.00 for it, there is just too much to be had..


Hello Doug.
I am sorry to not agree with you. I am fully aware about how prices works in America and how that is hurting collections and collectors!
In America my 100% original 1933/1936 transitional SS dagger worth 2k but in no time the price rises to 8K and I had offers for 11K.
Something, somewhere is very wrong.
Hermann Historica set this price in 2001!
I believe I am not the one to blame, but anyway everybody, but me, likes a bargain despite ethics and honesty. I know how that works specially at GDC.
But I must say you are a lucky person! You bought this Hitler head for $400.00! I offer you right now $1.000.00 if original as you say.
Thank you!
