Enamel center to the Garde star, but solid crown on the eagle's head... :-k

To bad the helmet is not included...the seller is just auctioning the Trichter. I hate it when people advertise their auctions like that. Show only the stuff you intend to sell :x

I hope someone bids on it and ask where their helmet is and files a complaint! Ha

I posted on this one too. According to him, he sold the helmet with spike and the buyer didn't want the trichter, so now he's selling that. REALLY? SERIOUSLY? You're money-hungry enough to break up a set, rather than tell a buyer to take a hike? If it was a good set, the seller is a stupid bastard.

Actually, it is likely he salvaged the Trichter from being dumped in the garbage, I suspect he sold the helmet for the price he was asking for it complete, and the buyer did not want the Trichter. None of us have any control of any item we sell once it has passed from our hands. I have seen a lot of shoulder board pairs split up by board collectors, it is not much different.

Its not uncommon that a haube is taken apart and all the components are sold separately on ebay [-(
