Hopefully no-one is lured into this auction....

Someone selling Gondorian Helm for cheap because it's got no box, no cert, and no stand.... They are advertising it as a UC helm, but I emailed to ask for the number and they said it had none.
Also, it's the exact same picture as the budk website is selling their stainless steel knockoff (instead of Iron like the UC one).

Be VERY very careful... you'll notice the differences such as the brow-line not coming all the way to the side as it does in the REAL UC model that can be seen here:

EDIT: Turns out it was NOT a UC helm.... as stated below they updated the listing... They subsequently contacted me back with the info. First off, let me apologize if I spoke too harshly of them as they seem to feel I did (they stated that they are a member of the forum). They claim it was an honest mistake and judging by their feedback, I'm sure they are very reputable.
However, I stand by my initial post since it originally stated to be WARY that it may not be a U.C. helm, which it turned out it WASN'T... THAT is exactly what I was cautioning against. Again, I'm sorry if I came off rude to the company, but I wanted to make sure no-one here got ripped off, and possibly even saved them some negative feedback.
Careful with this auction
