Hello,
Unfortunately someone is going to be screwed when they receive their made in the UK fake/replica Mecklenburg-Schwerin enlisted style helmet.
I wrote the seller, as apparently someone else did, pointing out that the helmet has absolutely No original parts on it. All the parts, including the helmet shell are modern made in the UK.
I also described to the seller everything that is wrong with it, point by point, as to what shows that the helmet is a made in the UK replica. He did add a very short so-called "disclaimer" to the very bottom of his auction description, stating that a couple of eBay members wrote him stating the helmet is a replica made in the UK. But "he still believes it is real." Apparently no one sees that, and whoever placed the opening $400 bid on it doesn't care and doesn't realize it's garbage.
Someone placed an opening bid of $400 on this worthless piece of garbage found here: https://www.ebay.com/itm/WW1-German-Pickelhaube-Spike-Helmet/353107201203?hash=item5236d44cb3:g:6IgAAOSwI~5e5rQc
Best Regards,
Alan
