As for the helmet thing, why don't you guys try cheaperthandirt.com, I'm getting my MICH from them and the whole thing shipped was like $40.


Good luck.  Several months ago Raith and I ordered two TC-2000 helmets from them.  When we received them we discovered that that had sent the less expensive PASGT helmet.  Upon closer examination, we found that they had just slapped a "MICH Replica" sticker over the original "PASGT Replica" label.  We were able to get a refund (minus the shipping), but they won't be getting any of my business any time soon.

I didn't see the 2002s on their website.

I'd really take either 2001 or 2002.  Just depends upon if the seller is willing to include some.

Here is the reply I received -

Quote from: "E-Mail Reply"

Dear Matt,

On the regular TC-2000 we can do $30 each. On the cut off ones we can do $50. The cut off ones our cost is significantly higher.

If you have any further questions, suggestions or comments please feel free to email me right back.
Please include original message in your replies. Thank you and have a nice day.

Same thing happened to me.

Rather than a refund, though, I gave the thing to my nephew.  He's now the only kid on his block with a PASGT that's called a "MITCH." :lol:

Ok we'll see what happens. I'm still not too keen on evike.com and I only deal with that site when absolutely necessary. They charge way too much for their stuff and it looks like a lot of their stuff is used. At least that's what it looked like when I got my GBB from them.

Id be up for one (2002 or 2000 TAN), have a few questions.  Are they standard one size and are adjustable with the inner suspension?  Basically I wear a 7 1/4 if this is needed.  Also, How much do covers usually run?  Thanks.

A black one? EWW!!

And is there any update on when this deal is goin' down?

Cancel that. I just found this giant forest green football helmet I'll wear to OPI3! It'll kick ass! Since it's green, it'll match with the team!

These have a four point strap and removable pads that are held in with Velcro.  The straps are adjustable and the pads can be replaced with smaller or larger ones, but I don't know where you could buy some or what the price would be (You could probably make some if you had the right materials).  I'm not sure how well they would fit your size head, but the straps should have a wide range of adjustment.

Real covers are about $30:

And replicas can be found for less:

I don’t want to volunteer anyone, but there also may be certain members of this forum that could make you a cover.

Hey guys.  I am new to the forum so I hope this isnt out of line.  

If he said he was willing to do $30 on the 2000, thats all he is charging on ebay unless it also includes shipping.  Also in his latest auction he shows all three models.  I would be intrested in a 2000 or 2002.

I also dont know how to post the cool "ebay auction" link things so if a Mod wants to fix that it would be cool.
