Hello friends,
What do you think about this ring? For me very interesting ring. 800 mark looks ok to me. Don't saw any flaws. But your opinions will be nice. Thanks

Hi blvck- do you have a picture of the inside of the ring, behind the shanks and cartouche?

I like what I see so far, enamel looks right, stamp looks OK, band looks ok.....more pictures needed

Oh yes, forgot to post this photo

It's a good one!

Blvck is ex-member "triggerself", who, along with "sniper" were posting some questionable rings.

He has now joined himself as an ex-member

Ah... we were all wondering...

HAHAHA!

I dunno Dave I'm a mod on another forum and I have dealt with (See kicked out guys before) I'm sure some of them came back. As long as they didn't cause more issues and we're positive and respectful, I would give them a second chance, but that's just me, if this is sergey I see nothing wrong with this thread.....I dunno I would give the guy the slightest second chance, he did contribute a lot of info and rings to some threads......

All good points. I'm not a fan of personal insults to my friends (or anyone really) -Gaspare - moderator and expert, and Andy- (also a forum sponsor.)These are good men who deserve an apology as much if not more than the insulter deserves a second chance, just my opinion however- I'm a rookie and "ersatz" moderator here... there are rules of conduct, and the admins know what they're doing. I trust -and I hope you all do too- Daves decision on this 1000%. I've tried to send an email, dave- seems to be stuck in my "outbox."

I agree mike I wouldnt tolerate any on that nonsense moving forward. G and Andy are both true gentleman collectors who both give selflessly of themselves to us all...

hi members
happy new year this is to who ever is named blvck or perhaps triggerself if the name fits wear it . this is what my opinion is on this swasticka ring marked 800 that you have pictured here this ring is completly fake no doubt in my mind and if you dont believe me then prove me wrong . please dont come here again to our great ring forum with any more of your fake rings we are here to enjoy this great ring forum and not to be all ways judging your fake rings i hope you get this message loud and clear i rest my case Andy Militarynut

Maybe it is the pics but enamel looks rough.
No scratching and damages.
I would be very very careful in this ring.

How about Hapur? He can perhaps tell since he makes rings in the original ways...?

hi odel
all ways a pleasure to read your posts and your honest opinions on third reich period rings . this as i posted my opinions on this swaz ring i have to agree with you caution i agree with you the enameling is rough crudely made not period made in my opinion also this ring does not dhow me the proper wear after being seventy five years old this ring does not flick my bic in any way shape or form last if any one gets a chance they can see the same ring on germania internationals or reddick from texas be my guest to see for your selves what crap is around on the net and please remember i have no dogs in this fight i am only trying to save our members thier hard earned money if you buy cheap you only get what you pay for thank you god bless odel feed the pack andy militarynut

Hi "old" friend, allways good to read your words.
I totally agree and with your opinion about these criminals that try to burn the guys here.
And, of Course, i feed the pack.
Here a short impression with 2 ones

Nice looking pack there odal! And thank you both, and dave- very much, you are really doing a great service to us- the next generation of new collectors whether you know it or not... we truly appreciate it!!

based on pics posted I really do not like enamel. At least questionable ring, I would stay away.

I agree more pictures are needed especially of the enamel, it's hard to tell if it's glass or not...

hi odel

re,blvck. to be fair he has only asked for opinions on this ring

I do appreciate this point, polop- but consider the events leading to expulsion, then flaunting that decision by creating a fraudulent alias to get back in/on the forum... I find that blantantly ignoring our shared code of conduct a second time is disrespectful at this point now to all of us who agree to them, and follow them. As if the first infraction wasn't bad enough... I think this forum and format (and to a greater extent- hobby) only exists if unselfish patrons share and reciprocate rather than cheat, lie, and attempt to defraud people of both their hard earned money as well as their good will to share their time/opinions.

I second that. They have gone too far by a mile.

"to be fair he has only asked for opinions on this ring"

That how he and his partner lead off. He puts it up and the other admires it and thinks it is real.

Yes, i totally agree.
