GdC - who beat me to this one

[ccj]

I got beat out by someone and I tried like heck to be online when uodated. All I can say is work gets in the way too often for me to grab up good stuff.
Love the way this one looks

I remember this helmet. It was offered in an auction in Belgium last November. The price was not very high.

Guess you cant win them all. That was a beauty though, my favorite helmet of all time right there.

What a beauty! I too saw this one on AoK, it was snatched up almost immediately!

 

[ccj]

My goal is to get one before I die… as we all know times seems to be running out fast!!!!

That's a fact. You lose way more than you win. I'm 45plus years into collecting…. The Internet helps for sure….

I have time left, I hope, so I may get one yet. More time than some bit less time than many.

Sorry guys I sm the one who got that helmet.

I did wait for a while before pressing the button

 

[Amybellars]

Ooh still have to wait for AOK to confirm as it is on reserve as pending for payment. I reserved it but the system may have another person who reserve it at the came time too.

I sm the one who got that helmet.

Congratulations on your Beautiful Purchase.

 

[Amybellars]

Remy AOK just confirmed that it's my helmet. Sorry guys but let's look at the long run, when I die the helmet will be made available by my estate. So there's still chance.

No need to be sorry Amy, the fact that this helmet is going to a forum member who’ll take good care of it is a big win!

I think it’s a wonderful helmet for a jr collector of helmets like me. It’s not good enough for an expert like Amy….

Joke- congrats.

Congratulations Amy

I'm in awe/jealous at the amount of cash your able spend on the Hobby. I can't wait to see more pictures when you get it, at least I can live vicariously through you. Happy hunting

I can certainly tell you're serious about collecting, didn't you just buy a Bavarian Generals tunic? That would at least keep me satisfied for a month or so

This is when they all pop up - when you're out of money. By just saying it, you tease the Gods of Irony to do that

 

[ccj]

Oh… I know it’s gonna be terrible. Everything I’ve ever wanted will surface now.
