Re: Fake: SPACE BADGE

SPACECADET1983,

I am sorry, but what did you expect. THis is a typical present day manufacture, and the seller most likely knows that.

True, Alexei, true!
But despite my Christian background as a former missionary and minister I still like to believe (however naively, I'm sure) that people will do the right thing. The Bible is clearly correct when it says we've all sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. I will try to refrain from anymore sermons!:):):)

Re: Fake: SPACE BADGE

It's now at $154.50 USD with 4 hours and 25 minutes to go! This is quite amazing! An authenic badge and certificate that was awarded to the late Astronaut Deke Slayton (Post #279) went for $280.00 USD back in May 2008. Someone sure is going to be unhappy when they find out the truth! Glad it isn't me!:)

Re: Fake: SPACE BADGE

Here's another, more obvious copy of the Veteran of Russian Cosmonautics badge currently on E. The listing says, "Veteran of Russian Cosmonautics badge. Badge is new, given to Russian Cosmonauts." The cost? $19.95 USD + $5.00 S/H.

39 bids! What really amazes me is that there are so many people out there willing to spend a lot of money and not willing to do their homework.

Re: Fake: SPACE BADGE

Here's a great buy - $8.38 for a copy of a Cosmonautics Veteran of Russia Badge. This particular badge is being offered on a Russian website that only sells to people within the country.;)
