Lets face it, a lot of time, a wife or girlfriend is trying to figure out what the heck to get the guy in their life. It’s frustrating because they have no idea what he might like. All they know is that he has a collection of “war stuff”. Don’t worry! We deal with this ALL THE TIME! Send us an email with any info you can including your budget and what he already has. A picture is worth a thousand words. With a photo or two we can see what areas of collection he likes and we can make a few smart recommendations for you. Remember, we have over 3,000 listings, so its a good chance we can find you the perfect gift! Oh and one question we get all the time. “Is your stuff real?” YES! In fact, we guarantee it! When you buy from us, you are buying in confidence! So shoot us an email at [email protected] today!

Hi! My name is Dante Gambino. I was inspired to start this website after the passing of my father Sterling “chip” Gambino. Chip was the a well known and respected advanced dagger collector and 3rd Reich dealer. He is remembered as “one of the good guys” in this hobby full of shady and rude people. SMG is a family run business with great heritage and tradition. When you deal with SMG you are dealing with me, or potential some of the people who help me out once in a while, my wife, and close friends of mine who I trust that help out at the shows. So this isn’t a huge operation where you get crummy service. What are you getting when you buy from SMG is value in a number of ways. Firstly, you get genuine artifacts that are guaranteed original to the time period described or assumed. Fancy talk for, you aren’t getting ripped off. If something doesn’t seem right to you, or if by chance something slips through the cracks that isn’t what is supposed to be, send the item back. No big deal, we make it right! If you are a specialist in a specific area and you see a listing error or error in a description, send us an email! Again, we will fix it. We get constant emails asking us if our items are authentic, because the fact of the matter is there are so many sites out there selling awards that are junk, but don’t tell you they are reproductions! So what else do you get when you buy from SMG? Personalized service! Many dealers don’t care about the little guys or have time to spend answering questions. Some of my customers have turned into my good friends, simply because we exchange emails and phone calls often. This site is operated by a real person and you can get to know me and I get to know you. You are also buying a name. What’s that mean??!?! Most people would say, well I don’t care about the name of anything, I just want the product. But in this business, the name MEANS SOMETHING.
When people hear that you bought something from SMG War Relics or Dante Gambino, they know you got the real deal. Not some fly by night flea market guy. You bought quality, originality, service, a friendly person to ask questions, integrity and history.
People always ask Where are you located? Well, we are web based only. The reasons for that are many, mostly because in this day and age local communities would have a hard time understanding why there is a shop that has Nazi artifacts in it. It’s a constant battle to explain why good, moral and honest people collect Nazi memorabilia. I would rather not risk my business to the fate of some ignorant local news reporter or the general public who may not understand why it’s important to preserve and dissect this era in history. Facebook, ebay and others have so many rules that make it hard for people to enjoy this hobby. Even Google has new algorithms that lump this site into a category that “promotes hate” and we suffer in google searches because of it. If you want to meet us face to face, come to one of the shows we set up at. We attend the MAX show in Pittsburg which is in the fall and the SOS (show of shows) which is in Louisville Kentucky in late winter. We have 6 tables at the MAX and 4 tables at the SOS (It’s hard to get more!! These shows are packed). that’s pretty good spread, as most dealers only have a table or two. So we make a big effort to bring you a great selection. If you would like to learn more about these shows, dates, hotel info please visit the promoters website or give them a call. http://www.sosovms.com/
