It's not a problem: he states that he made it himself. "Schöner Tschapka des Garderegiment Hannover, Eigenbau aber wunderschön gemacht. Wirklich schönes Stück und ein Augenfang in der Vitrine, siehe Bilder". Seems honest enough to me. The price? A bit stiff, but if one doesn't do one's homework and fails to read and if necessary translate the description, maybe one deserves to be stiffed :D
 
Obvious fake, but advertised correctly.
Too bad that so many dealers try to pass something like this off as "Estate find, 100% original".

John :(
