Why why why???

Does anyone else have this problem??? I asked ChatGPT to do some research into my missing mail! I filed a missing mail report and no update. Why does it show more on ChatGPT than the actual usps website? This is horse sh*t. I hope it’s not lost to the void and it’s just back logged. (ITS A VERY IMPORTANT ANTIQUE!) would anybody else have some insight?

M1942 10th mountain division bag

Can’t believe I found an actual original Rusack used by the 10th army mountain division. I know these things are highly rare not one thing that was really made often during the war, and by the looking of it this gentleman did not have a very good time. Maybe I’ll be able to find his name because of the small amount of people that were in that specific division. Always check out your local walkable markets. You never know what you’ll find. My rule of thumb is look for Olive color anything!

Kinda cringey

Phony collectors in almost every state have one of these shit post up. Why just WW2? (Because most likely war grifters and hitler ass kissers.) If you were one of these poor blokes that tried to put the spin on people on Facebook marketplace and have these really lame ad advertisement post up. The only one who sees these post are us collectors. What I see when I see these post are “I’m a scalper of ww2 items and I will scam you for a +1000 usd item and tell you I can only offer you my lunch money and a $100 dollars borrowed from my mum.”
People sorry to say this, but if you cannot afford the items that you are advertising that you could buy but cannot, then you are a scammer and you are lame. It’s Simple mathematic, make sure you have the money to afford these items instead of going to this level and falsely calling yourself a collector. You are reseller and you are a little piggy. you give all the other collectors Bad names… I put this in fake military because I believe most of us have seen these post and kind of cringe a little. (They are fake dealers/“militaria experts”) had one in my inbox exclaiming “I’m not even sure what it’s worth to be honest. I collect more US GI stuff so I’m a lot less familiar with German stuff, I don’t think I could give you an offer cause I just don’t even know where to start to be honest” so honest HE said it twice lol.
SHAME ON YOU
***DO NOT CALL YOURSELF A COLLECTOR OR “AUTHENTIC” DEALER IF YOU CANT “TELL” WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING AT. FRAUD/CHEATS/CHILDREN WITH POCKET MONEY HAVE NO RIGHT IN MILITARIA COLLECTING. .(***i was there to at on point as a young collector with little to no money, but I wasn’t claiming I was Mr Smithsonian.)

Honestly let’s start posting these guys to fake Militaria. I kinda believe they have the right to be here next to the fake shit.
