I was going to bid myself, but I want to stay married at the moment. I've been exceeding my 'one each year or two' promise to my wife. She's very understanding though.

Was sold today for the nice amount of 2.610$ or 1.958€, absolutely incredible. I will have to renegociate my insurance policy immediately

OMG Gus always talks about buying things too early.....

 

[poniatowski]

More than I'd have expected by quite a bit. Yeah, time to look into insurance again.
What's up with these prices!?? Wow. Used to be an officer helmet was $100. A nice 'even' number. Of course, the generation before mine remembered $50 for a good officer helmet.

Have a look at the sellers last ebay feedback the helmet sold for US$1400.00, the $2610.00 sale must have fallen over...

I would have paid US$1400.00 a nice complete helmet.
