A good place to pick up smaller stuff like insignia, buttons, camp equipment, etc., but not the best place for larger purchases like uniforms. The uniform pieces supplied here are comparatively a bit more affordable, but ultimately sacrifice historical accuracy for that slight affordability.

She refused to address except to let me know she signed all checks . I told her ok but the real reason is that the emporium has a most professional manager who accounted for everything . I advise anyone to stay clear of the regimental quartermaster especially for consignment The owner and manager are most...
