    UNITED STATES IMPORT EXPORT DEVELOPMENTS

    Well well well things changing on a daily basis it seems! Sending Dane his postal cap from Weitze and some spare headgear stands I have from Skip to a friend in Florida via UPS and apparently now need a Tax ID which for personal shipments is their SSN #’s. Never read or heard about that one...

    UNITED STATES IMPORT EXPORT DEVELOPMENTS

    Canada Post is hilarious as each outlet and in fact each person at each outlet, usually in a Shoppers Drug Mart, has different understanding of what the rules are and usually aren’t up to date. I use the Canada Post app and am considered a “super user” with access to Beta releases to test...

    Don’t get me wrong James, I am just trying to figure out the motive for the posts from Gino and we had a nice conversation via DM. There are no issues and yes there is a definite something lost in translation for me at least lol. All good no issues.

    GK and GdC helmets

    I think someone is selling off or has sold off a Curassier collection as I notice condition is similar on a lot of the helmets with respect to the exterior patina. I spoke with them about a helmet I purchased a while back and they told me more will be coming later in particular one helmet...

    I don’t understand what you mean by the fool who asks and the fool who gives, or the context in which it is supposed to be received?

    weekly sales in America

    $6500 was not for an everyday helmet but for a rather special regiment and one in good condition. For a plain jane Württ. AoK has sold for far far less than that and had one from this collection priced and sold for about $1500 if I recall correctly and in fact see them come up for sale often...

    I think one reason these are selling so fast is the pricing has been very reasonable if not even well under what dealer prices typically are.

    Wanted: Reichspost cap and uniform

    Hi Dane, If you want the Weitze cap they can ship it with an item I have coming in a few weeks to my home in Canada so it probably wouldn’t cost anything for shipping. Then I can then re-box it and send it to you in the US - no cost to you as I’d be happy to help you out. Shoot me a DM if...

    M16 Bing Helmet

    Hey Hans, I believe you are 100% correct with the theory. I’ve not heard or seen anything else that might contradict that. You should try to acquire the 2nd one you posted to see them side by side. It would make a very nice display as well! Fantastic helmet by the way, love it!

    Vimy ridge memorial,

    Been many times. Did you get to tour the subway? I did tours when you got a much more complete tour of the subways including the unexploded ordnance. The new one is much shorter and not as complete. Fantastic site and holy ground for Canadians.
