Milwaukee Braves / Hank Aaron batting helmet question

[momen55]

that is a 60's helmet. a friend has a helmet from the 60's and the sticker is identical.

Just to wrap this up...

someone was kind enough to send me a link to an eBay auction that this seller won about 6 weeks ago. It is the exact same helmet, but was all blue, and the sticker not tampered with. Identical padding creases, paint marks on the inside. Exact same helmet. He then obviously modified it to make it look like a Milwaukee Brewers helmet and put it up as a Hank Aaron helmet.

Seller says he will refund my money.

Thanks to all who helped out.

Here is the link to the auction that includes the helmet I now have.

I'm also adding an inside pic of my helmet so you can compare it with the inside pic from the eBay auction. Exact match.

so even though the helmet is fake, you are going to keep it?

Pretty sure he's returning it based on the seller is going to refund his money. I'd report this to the police or maybe even FBI. This guy deserves to be in jail.

As part of the process to get my money back through eBay, the first step is to return the helmet.

Spred the word. Don't buy any Milwaukee Braves/Aaron helmets any time soon.
