Reichskolonialbund fake sold as real

Hello all,
Thought I’d share. Purchased a reichskolonialbund pin from bunker militaria. After doing some research it was evident this was a fake. Bunker militaria offered a full refund right away but withheld 8 dollars in shipping. Add that to the money I spent to send the pin back. I understand if I decided I didn’t want the pin, but this was a fake issue. I will not be purchasing from them again. Has anyone else had dealings with bunker militaria? Maybe I’m just one bad experience.

This applies only to "s" marked examples. See the pebbling in the enamel, that should be uniform with 9 dots in the right corner. Also the "s" should have sharp flat style to the ends of the letter, and finally the oval around the s should be more rounded. To this fakes credit the border around the swastika looks good. Many fakes don’t have the proper border, they leave no space.
