Great Britain: Top 5 Auctions in eBay WWII

Sunday, November 13, 2011

When you are looking at British items from World War 2 that collectors chase after are there two more iconic items than the Lee Enfield sniper scope and the Fairbairn-Sykes fighting knife.  Whenever these classics pop up on eBay the final price always commands respect.  The other two listings that are not as familiar to me are the medals.  There are a good number of medals that sell in this subcategory of WWII and these two did exceptionally well.
