it`s one event i`ve never managed to get to. but i heard that there aren`t too many bargains to be had there?.

Lots of "bad" stuff or rubbish OR too much money for the item.Great Re-enactors tho,!

hi guys what does the term too early for ****tails mean ?
i stall here need to sell to buy, so i get a chance to hunt for 7 days,got many nice accouterments including a hj leader top clip,and 8 daggers all cheap i dont like to pay much if i can.

Dippy,
It did seem to be worth your while attending,you cerainly picked up some nice daggers.
The Rohm has to be worth it alone,of course,that is depending on the deal.I would like to bet it was the only Rohm there,full that is.I was there and did not see any.
I have to agree with Seiler though,there was a lot of rubbish and a lot of fake stuff and a lot of expensive stuff.One German dealer was selling fake everything from SA Marines to TK peaks and put up a very strong case for his gear,and got very angry if you merely questioned their authenticity.
Each to their own I say,I have never been before and did enjoy the experience.I met some good people and learned from them,picked up some pieces and got wet!

i agree you have to hunt and do your homework we all get tricked sometimes,books are our best allie,money does get people tetchy especially a soggy german.
