I have known chisumr for 20 years, he is a close personal friend of dozens of QPs from Okinawa out of 1/1.

I don't see the "bait and switch" that is alluded to here. He went into a sew shop, the gals working in there had some old patches in a box. He paid for the patches (has anybody asked what he had to pay for the patches yet?) and then came on here to see if some of them could be identified.

Regardless of whether you want to pay 30.00 for a 3.00 patch, without knowing the cost basis for the OP in a sew shop on BC street in Okinawa for Vietnam-era patches (what did he have to pay for the patches), then it seems to me that this is a tempest in a teapot.

OP was asked if he had any extra, he said yes and named a price. If you don't like the price then don't buy it. But don't impugn the reputation of someone that I have personally known for more than 20 years.
