Years ago I went to a militaria show. These 3 old guys had a few tables full of German medals, badges and etc. Turns out there were four buddies who were all avid collectors. They made an agreement with each other. When one of them dies, the surviving friends would take the collection of the deceased and sell it off for the widow. Sounds like a best case scenario. But the last guy to go loses out. This only works if you have close friends who know your subject, ie Lugers and German automatics. I don't have that. They had priced everything very well. Priced to move, but not a give away. I picked up a nice cased first class iron cross from them.
