Just to add, I've watched his auctions over the last few months and he's averaging a couple of kits a week here. The kit doesn't come with strapping and velcro etc so I guess to a novice (and lets face it, it's going to be a novice that buys these, no offence jeff) it's a daunting task. I'd imagine that it might take a bit longer to assemble than a full kit so I anticipate that by Easter the 501st is going to have an influx of this guys suits and a lot of disappointed and frustrated troopers. I thought I'd researched, it transpired I really hadn't but I was very very lucky the guys over on the UK Garrison spotted it for me. (extra thanks to Si who I know is here as well). My RS build is coming along nicely, though a little slower than originally planned as husband bought himself an SC Biker Scout so currently assembling 2 lots of kit

I bought this armour around October last year. Fortunately I found out before I'd made any cuts that it was highly unlikely to be 501st Approved. At the time Rattlehead was selling this in the main title as '501st Approved'. I questioned this in my dispute and he has taken it out of the title, however, it remains in the body of his auctions. To his credit he paid for the return and refunded in full. As to the question of who he is, I can tell you his name is Andrew Bourne, or at least that is the name on the Paypal account. I bought an RS kit just before Christmas and to be honest it's like comparing a mini to a Ferrari. The RS kit blows this out of the water.
