Don't miss the named Amtsleiter set with file on the For Sale section.
Once in a lifetime opportunity to own a complete Amtsleiter uniform with 80- copies file with picture of the wearer.

Sold and this is my farewell to the collecting community. Ater 30+ years I've decided to end the hobby. The fun is gone, the envy has grown, the fakes have won and "my item is real, your's ain't" has made the hobby to an everlastig competition. There's too much specialists in a world in which all that has really participated in the war are gone the youngsters have all the knowledge and seem to know everything like the one that mailed me telling me my SS Uniform was way overpriced. In Italy they sold the real stuff for US 150,-. It was where Mussolini was born and there was so much SS stuff there it costed almost nothing. Then you know it's time to stop.

Hi Hans, I couldn't have said it better myself. You are right, the fun is gone! Wish you well!

Hi Hans.
I never did have the pleasure of meeting or talking with you but totally understand what your saying.

Hope the 30 years of knowledge and experience pays off big for you with a nice yard sale score that brings you back in.
