Ebay jokes

Actually, that is a common classification. Earlier Lenins look 'Evil', later Lenins look 'Kind'.

Search "USSR KGB Badge RED STAR medal order."

I quote the seller:

"I guarantee you complete satisfaction with all my high quality products. If you receive an item you did not order or if an item you ordered is received damaged or defective, I will refund you the price you paid for it or replace it with identical one."

"replace it with identical one" is remarkably hard for an individual numbered piece :laff

But it gets better...

no pictures of any value

and...

$68.80 shipping :laff

"I think they're fake"
Standard forum answer: We need detailed scans first.

Looks like a bad photoshop with the ushanka, haha.

I think George C. Parker offered to sell the Brooklyn Bridge with a more believable sales pitch...

That little story is awesome.
For the first time in my life I actually saw some of those visor hats riddled with pins and badges on ebay! They look hilarious.

Gentlemen,
we have a new standard for Lenin order copies.
From now on this is "Very good repro!!!"

The specimen is from eBay. I think it looks like it is made from porridge.

It looks like it is made from aluminum foil to me but possibly covered in porridge. :chuckle
