"sale" on ebay Germany

You are right Amy. I really wanted his M1842 and I think I got a good offer, but it was automatically rejected too. On the other hand, I know a helmet that was sold for an offered price. So I think he accepts offers, but only in a small range.
 
If Ferdinand von zeppelin is a Forum member, who? I don’t see why this should be a secret on an open forum. I believe the photo below of an exceptional 1842 is one of his that I saved from a thread our forum. I’d like to congratulate him on having an exceptional eye for quality and his photography is outstanding.

This is my good friend, I don’t know why he doesn’t write here that this is his collection of helmets. maybe out of modesty?
 
He may not be watching the forum.

His prices are pretty fixed on email, I made an offer for the baden and it was rejected right away.

I guess he has to factor in ebay fee and he has no urgency to sell.
When you state in your auction " buy it now" there are no fees for ebay - as far as I´ve understood from the conditions of ebay

There is no listing fee for buy it now but there is still a final fee payable to eBay for the sale which is about 17% and if u add on the payonner annual fee, its a good 20 to 22%
 
This Ersatz one is absolutely overprized!!


Two of such specific Ersatz helmets were sold on ebay a few years for 500-600 Euro each...I had them in my hands for a few months.

I'd like to know why we have to pay sales tax on foreign transactions :oops:

I really hate Ebay but every once in a while, you find a good deal that even with all the taxes and shipping charges is worthwhile.

For sellers it is also terrible, here in the USA if you sell more then 600 dollars in a year, they treat you as a business and send you tax forms. How they can tax you on items you've already paid taxes on is unbelievable. TAX TAX TAX :mad:

Do not complain in Europe there are taxes on sun,rain,shade,sugar, etc.In Poland there is also a tax on air or bottom under the pier and hundreds of others.Where people love Marx and Lenin tax miracles begin.Communism always leads to poverty and hunger.I have already been through this in my life and I see that the wheel of history continues to turn.

His prices are indeed very high, but 600 for these Ersatz helmets in that condition is cheap in my opinion. I would buy them straight away to be honest.
