This guy has always awesome items. He must have collected for years. I bought some prussian swords from him and the french helmet on my avatar....
 
Hi

Looking at his swords, I would like to say that they look good. However they are often uncomplete. Look for instance at:

This unofficial Hessian sword (the wonderful blue part in the center of the blade is missing):

This 1822 Off sword (the handle is uncomplete; all brass part should be gilded (or at least keep some golden part), ....like should be gilded all OFF wappen for pickelhaubes!):

The seller is certainly very correct and a great collector, because he has scarce items. Nevertheless, all item should be checked to be sure.

Then, like dealing with pickelhaubes, be cautious with all militaria items!
