Closeout Items
are sold "as is", will not be restocked
all sales final

Items listed on this page are factory seconds, discontinued, screw ups, or damaged in some way. In many cases the defects would never be noticed by most customers. Most of the uniforms suffer from minor material or assembly flaws. The majority of the time this means a small hole or tear (which we have usually repaired), a misplaced or extra snap, a sloppy buttonhole, or runners or misprints in the fabric. Most if not all are completely serviceable, the flaws only affecting the appearance, and they will perform as a first quality item would. We will usually list the specific defect with the item.

Items listed on this page are not returnable. Most are discounted at least 35-50% and will not be restocked. The majority of the defects are not visible without careful examination and would not be "defected" if offered by most other vendors.

There are no quantity discounts on closeout items unless specifically noted in the item description. Some we have only 1 or 2 of, while others are available by the dozen.


Overselling:
We try to keep this page updated a quickly as possible, but many of the items are available in quantities of 2 or 3 and sell out very quickly. Likewise, we sometimes have several customers order the same item within a few moments and we end up selling them twice. You can get pissy and have a tizzy fit, that's your prerogative. But we try to be a s clear as possible despite the occasional mistake.

Hold/ Layaways:
We normally will hold an item for 7 days if you wish to mail a money order. However, due to a torrent of recent antics, closeout items are first come, first serve. Whoever pays for the item first, gets it. As many items are singles, it is too much aggravation trying to keep this page current when people call and claim to be sending money, then repeatedly call with excuses for further delays. We do not offer layaways on any items period, for the same reasons.

M43 Field Jacket, Size XXXL Long
We will no longer be making ultra-beefy sizes in anything. We don't sell enough to justify the expense. These are the last few we will ever have. So, if you're really big, these are more than half off and they won't be back. These will fit a 54-58 Long. They are closeouts- no returns- so if you wear a 44, we can assure you that you will be wasting your money. In case you think that Mom will be able to cut it down to fit your 150 pound self, think again. It's not feasible. In other words, if you're a small or average sized person, you're s.o.l. on this one.

$50 Closeout. No Returns.
These are NOT returnable. If you wear trousers this big, you will know it. If you think you can have your mommy cut these down to a size 34 or 36 and think you can't pass up this deal, you should pass- she will KILL you. Unless you completely disassemble them, the most you can decrease the waist is about 4 inches...and then the back pockets will be touching.
If you are a big guy, and are hoping for a still better deal, it won't happen. Future uniforms will only be made up to size 44 waist.

Reg. $100-$125

German/Axis Items
All sales final on closeout items!



Kriegsmarine Lieutenant Visor
New, white-topped Schirmutze for German naval officers. Perfect for your U-Boat impression. All these lack is the metal pin-on eagle. We do not carry the correct eagle or else we would have put them on. These are top quality reproductions made in Germany by the same company that makes our other visor caps. Sizes available: 58 or 60
$100



SS Panzer Crusher Caps
We have a few of our German made crusher caps with pink piping for offciers or NCO's in Panzer or Panzerjager units. This is not an item we intend to carry anymore, so they are on closeout.
Sizes available: 60 or 61 only
$125 each



BW Trouser Suspenders
Bundeswehr (German army). Field Gray elastic with leather tabs. Most are OK, but a few are missing a buckle- you can cannibalize them to repair another.
No hand-pick etc, etc.
Sold Out


DAK Pin: Cute little DAK pin. Most likely a copy of a private purchase tie pin or some such. Good quality reproduction.
Sold Out
