Oakleaf are a well known trader and have some nice items. If you buy from there it will turn up. However they do have a few items, particularly SS which are questionable. They are also very expensive.
As with any seller, try posting a link to whichever item you are interested in on a forum like Wehrmacht awards and you'll get a very swift opinion on whether its right or not.

Mate I'm just waiting for 'Hitler's testicle' and 'Himmler's moustache' to turn up Snyder's site! And surely for the bargain price of $20000 each! With COA of course from ... Charlie Snyder!

Oakleaf Militaria scares the heck out of me. They have a HUGE inventory of "rare" helmets...Perhaps too HUGE. :evil: I have never seen as many decaled helmets even when searching the entire Bundesarchiv, or Library of Congress of all their wartime photographs. :lol:


Yes, some dealers deal only in high end products, but some also pawn fakes as high end products. I wouldn't touch their business even for a "real" item due to their low overall ethics. I wouldn't even do it with someone else's wallet for that matter!

In a slight defense of Snyders, when ordering original insignia, I have to give hi thumbs up. But for simple things such as radio man's badges and specialist badges. I ordered some from him and all went well, trully nice things. But I never bought anything that was out of the ordinary.
