Interesting Concentration camp I.D. lot

Just thought I would post this. I came across this on Craigslist of all places and the guy was selling these really cheap once I talked to him. I felt kind of bad as they were his parents items, but he needed money and he'd sell it someone else if not me. Just wondering, I don't see these often and are these quite rare? I've seen on some sites where just a picture or I.D. is on sale of 400.00 or more. I have a guy offering me 550.00 for the lot, but I am really in no need of that and I would think these would be worth more? Again, it depends on a buyer and the sentimental value for some people. But there really is no "book" or price guide to gauge a value on items such as these. So I guess I am asking - something like this would be quite rare and valuable? Thank you

Have a look at this armband.

I've never seen anything like it. Any ideas?

I think this is a fake

Fortunately this was given to me, so I’m not out much if it’s a fake. I’ve never seen one fall apart like this -but I did read somewhere that early on in the war that civilians made their own? I could be mistaken.
It just seems very wrong, very crudely made. Even the swastika runs through a seem.

Armband

I am not sure about this one. I assume that it is an "over stamped" fake piece that I have read about on the forum.

Not sure about this piece

After reading many posts on the forums here, I have been going through my collection, and I am re-evaluating all of my pieces. This one I believe is a fake becasue the quality doesn’t seem to be there.

The back seems wrong. Looks like a piece of the 4th Reich.

Greetings. New member.

Hi!:) I'm Eric :eek:
I just joined after Richie twisted my arm over a basket of stone crab claws while in deep discussion about cap stars and other important items.:rolleyes:
Some of you might know me from elsewhere.

Here's me and Richie after a good lunch and antique hunt.

Looking forward to adding marginally informative content here now and again.
