Introducing HamFacts: "Provenance through Magic"

This is my first helmet purchase so I am excited to see if I can get a genuine HamFacts, Provenance through Magic Authentication.

The lid was just received today and I am amazed at the lightness (almost paperlike?), but it does weigh in at a hefty 4 oz. Boy, that is amazing that those natzi's could build such a light helmet that also protects.

Anyhow, I am hoping to get this authenticated as the seller told me that someone told him that it was a super rare SS/Gestapo/Sniper lid and that's why I laid out $1,200 for it. I hope I did OK.

Please let me know if I can expect to get a COA from your Magic Rock.

You're going to have to pay extra, because that lid has a C SS insignia.

Dear Jhv,
If your post count was higher and your post history was more obsequious toward moderators and dealers we favor, you would get a free Magic Rock reading and Provenance through Magic pie chart (patented) and COA. However, HamFacts will provide you one free Provenance Because I Say So reading ( a $35.00 value) Here you go: :thumbsup:

I am honored to receive a genuine Provenance Because I Say So reading. For you to also include the pink t-shirt as a free extra was just over the top - I am sold on HamFacts!

I will strive to lickspittle as much as possible in the future!

Cheers.
JHV

Until the Magic 8-Ball is scientifically debunked, it will remain my gold standard and life guide in all matters, ranging from poker hands to wives to 3R detritus.

As an aside, I recently purchased a copy of "Skeptic" magazine, thinking it might be interesting. It was, mildly, but I noticed it had a strong flavor of liberal bias and snotty remarks. Apparently, the skeptics at "Skeptic" are not skeptical of their own biases. Long live the 8-ball.

Rex, the problem with the M8B (which, along with XRFacts, is a direct competitor of HamFacts) is that it can give positives, negatives, and ambiguities. They are listed here: http://8ball.ofb.net/answers.html
While superior to XRFacts, M8B is far from "magic", unlike HamFacts which is real Magic. Also, if you pay enough to HamFacts, authentication is assured, every time.

That makes it 100% fool proof.

At a minimum Dave. "100% fool proof" is what you get for the standard Magic Rock authentication and COA. For additional fees, HamFacts can go to 124%, 150%, even 250% fool proof. HamFacts has cracked the code of single source authentication merged with Magic.
 
HamFacts does all those things and much much more because it's Provenance Through Magic. You have HamFacts' Because I Say So COA and Guarantee! Here's just one testimonial:

"I had a RC that I sanded the varnish off and invested in a full HamFacts Provenance Through Magic Certificate of Authenticity. My COA confirms that my RC was pulled out of a burning SS halftrack by my Uncle Bert at the Battle of the Bulge, which is so awesome because not only do I now have a valuable collectible, but now I also have a Uncle Bert who fought at the Battle of the Bulge! Thanks HamFacts!"

The X's and gooey crap finish only add to their intrinsic value

Current wisdom holds that removing the gooey crap from an RC is a crime against nature. It is considered part of the proud history of the glorious USSR. I am not sure if having bits of red shellac flake of on your hands when touching an RC counts as a felony or a misdemeanor, but I know it ain't good.

As for proving provenance, my hand-held helmet ray gun turned out to be a flashlight with a red lens, my magic rock revealed itself as a horse turd (shouldn't have washed it), and my Magic 8-Ball has a crack and is stuck on "Signs Point to Yes". I have to go with the 8-Ball at this point.
