*ITEM DESCRIPTION.
The item up for sale is an vintage, original Vietnam era US Army 505th Parachute Infantry Regiment(PIR), 82nd Airborne maroon beret.  1st Battalion.  Flash is cut edge and I believe that dates it circa 1968 or prior.  Distinctive Insignia Crest.
No markings or tags so I am not sure the exact size.
Very Good Plus condition.  Wear from usage, age.  Band around the edge has wear.  Wool has some minor wear but no holes.  Looks nice and will make a fine display piece.  Patch and crest are clean with fine color.
Please see pics.

All items are sold “as is” with no returns, unless item is misrepresented by the seller. Buyer is to pay actual shipping from zip code 15212. Description contains item final shipping weight as well as the shipping amount when possible. Shipping total includes item, box and packing to protect the item. The shipping cost is determined by your zip code(in the case of Priority Mail) at the end of the auction using USPS website and your zip code. USPS Priority Mail starts at .80 and depending on where the buyer is located in the domestic USA and goes up from there. It is determined by where in the United States the buyer is located in relation to Zip Code 15212. The farther away from Pittsburgh, PA you live, the more expensive the shipping is. It is not until the auction ends that I am able to determine the final shipping costs for items that are to be sent via USPS Priority Mail. First Class is determined by shape and weight, Media Mail and Parcel Post are determined solely by weight. I do my best to estimate the shipping weight prior the auction so as to provide the buyer with an idea what shipping will be. I do my best to insure the fairest possible shipping cost. All possible care is made to package the items so they will arrive to you in the state that they left in. Please do not use Ebay's check out system(this is so I can send you an invoice with correct shipping amount). We will contact high bidder by email after close of the auction.
International Buyers – Please Note:
Import duties, taxes and charges are not included in the item price or shipping charges. These charges are the buyer’s responsibility. Please check with your country’s customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding/buying.(These charges are normally collected by the delivering freight (shipping) company or when you pick the item up – do not confuse them for additional shipping charges. We do not mark merchandise values below value or mark items as ‘gifts’ – US and International government regulations prohibit such behavior.) Priority Mail International for international buyers is preferred though when other USPS options are available, I am open to suggestions. I always leave feedback once feedback is left. That lets me know the buyer is satisfied and the transaction is complete.
PLEASE NOTE:
If the auction is not explicitly stated as a “BUY IT NOW” auction, offers to end the auction early will not be considered.
Thank you for viewing my auction.
