Welcome to our Insignia Trade pages (Important Information - Please Read) Last Updated: September 06th, 2010 UPDATE: It became a little overwhelming trying to keep this section updated. After having gone through everything I realized I had well in excess of 2000 traders. I decided that the easiest way for me would be to reduce every thing to word document lists. Please click on any of the links below to bring up that respective list. Hopefully it will make it easier to update these lists. Important: Please do not take offense if I decline a trade. There are a number of patches that I have listed here that are simply rare. Even though I have an extra for trade, doesn't mean that I am willing to part with it for just any patch on my want list. It just means that in over twenty years of collecting I have come up with a 2nd. If you are really interested in a particular patch, and don't have something I need, I will entertain monetary offers as well. Categories: I have tried to compile the patches by Federal, State & Foreign. If the patch is from a Federal Task Force / Operation it will be under the Federal patches. If you are looking for patches from a particular state, please be sure to visit the both the Federal & State pages just to make sure. New / Used: The majority of the patches I have listed are new, some are uniform takeoffs, but all are presentable. I have never had a problem with uniform takeoffs. As a matter of fact, it made it a lot easier for me to determine what was real and what was questionable. Being a retired cop, someone's uniform patch also holds a special place in my eyes. It's "been there, done that" as opposed to the brand new, never used, uniform shop one. I understand that some collectors like "pristine" patches, so please let me know if this is an issue for you. Reproductions: A word here about these items. I am strictly opposed to reproductions when they are passed off to collectors as originals. I think they can have a place in the hobby, but the way they are proliferating the hobby is of great concern to me. When I know a patch is a reproduction, I have indicated so. Unfortunately, I am not an expert on all patches, so I can only try my best. If something concerns you, please contact me and let me know. If you know something is a repro, please advise me so that I can mark it as such. The only way to clamp down on this proliferation is if we work together.
