If you have bought a Belgian 349 Squadron RIAT 2019 patch, just to make some inflated cash out of it, instead of letting someone who actually wanted it at that price at the airshow, then that is in quite poor taste to be honest.

Could I just ask that you keep the language civil, saying it's a "d**k move" isn't really going to be the best option. I too wanted a patch and got there too late. Yes, I was too late, that's my fault, but to see someone get there ridiculously early, just to sell it later on, is not good.

Chill folks.

I have no issue with the word usage, it’s restrained and civil.

Whilst it is annoying that someone is selling this at a profit now, it’s their choice at the end of the day. And if people want to pay a lot, then let them.

I’ve seen other patches, such as the RIAT Spanish Harrier one, on eBay going for nearly £60, if not more.

Another one that I would’ve purchased, like this one, but neither were on my radar on the day.

Choices folks, even though it is annoying for people that missed out.

HI all

Thanks for the lovely responses. As it happens i picked up a spare Harrier RIAT 2019 patch for someone who ended up getting one from elsewhere so i traded that with someone else who needed it and i got a spare Belgian 349 from them. Id spent a fair bit at RIAT and decided i needed to sell some that i didnt require hence this post.

Ben
