Anyway, that line made me laugh along with the "Everyone needs Tupperware" on the ruler.
Unlike other similar assemblies, this still has some interesting badges and not just the usual junk. I guess however that it is priced as if Zhukov himself would have worn it?
Bearing an amazing similarity to another auctioneer who’s not seen any more, we have a spate of offerings featuring “orders & medals” and “their documents” being sold separately, and sometimes together. Including this baby (at over USD500.00 as I type):
“Order of Glory 2 cl. Est. 1944. N#28637”
Opps-a-daisy… numbering error on the production line! Sigh…

I saw that too. I belive he has about 3 accounts, 2 in australia, and the recent one in us. As far as i'm concern no collector or a dealer will break a group like that, in this case there was no group to break.:laff

Thought I remembered a prior Oz account of the same style. He rakes in an amazing amount of money, if the sales are to be believed.
