Re: Where to buy Albanian awards?
There is a sort of monopoly on ebay of Albanian awards with fixed prices that are inflated. There are still vast stockpiles of unissued awards in Albania that will be sufficient enough to completely satisfy all interests in them.
Obviously the Soviet produced ones are most desirable but they also had awards made in Yugoslavia and Germany before their splits and later awards were made in Albania and Kampuchea (I suppose when you are asking Pol Pot to help you are seriously isolated). These later awards, of vastly poorer quality, have a considerably smaller appeal. There is still a long way to go with Albanian awards. Hopefully in the next few weeks I can post some bits those who are interested will never have seen before. My main issue is remembering where I've put them.

Re: Where to buy Albanian awards?
Thanks for your info again CtahhR!
It´s sad what you wrote...mainly orders are from one seller (where I took my 2 pieces, skanderbeu 3rd class and freedom 3rd class), but not a lot of people has them. And this seller doesn´t go crazy with the prices (I saw a Skanderbeu 3rd class for 150$ or even more). What I saw it´s only Ikom and Prawerma items on screw back and without maker in pin back. I just look for Ikom and Prawerma, looks much nicer! About soviet made, didn´t see one yet (I think). Now I will wait for you to write those bits :D Again, thanks for your help! |
