When is a tape referred to as "KF" and when as "Recut"?
For example: Stompkop - Military tanks - NF and Stompkop - Military tanks - KF. The mirror is the same size in both series, only the length of the two wings differs.
Would it be better to refer to the "KF" series as "Recut". Who can show me an image of a "real" KF tape, not a "Recut" copy?

cigar band (Martin had tapped). Martin/Renee can help for a group of Resections (HER) in addition to KF and NF. This then gives the opportunity to indicate the quality such as good, reasonable and new

You can help make the Cigar Bands section more popular by providing some more information. Most readers on the forum read all messages and enjoy reading something in addition to the many stamp messages. But don't limit yourself to specialist language.
For example, explain what KF and NF stand for. Why are some straps recut?
For outsiders, this is just nice to know.

Most readers on the forum read all messages and enjoy reading something in addition to the many stamp messages. Although from years ago, but can still be found on the forum:

- The dimensions are shown in millimeters. The length is listed first and then the height of the strap. Eg: 67 x 28 mm
- The length of cigar bands of so-called normal size (= +- 67 mm) may vary due to use on thinner cigars. The maximum length is stated in the catalog. Minor length variations are not included separately in the catalogue.
- In addition, some series tapes from normal format were recut to the so-called small format (length < 50 mm). These are included separately in the catalogue. Recuts are then mentioned in brackets after the series name. E.g.: Mission Impossible (recut) The value of recut tapes is usually 50% of that of the original regular size. Once again, minor length variations on the recut tires are not separately included in the catalogue.

Thanks, I have now placed the text of the first line in the help text in the Dimensions field.

In which field can I place the other texts?

Perhaps it is best to first recut the field when making the prices visible on the .de and .com sites (after 12 years)?

FR= Recoupe
EN= Recut
DE= Herschnitten

They were not translated, hence they were not visible.
Please report these kinds of things, nowadays we can adjust a lot of things ourselves, without the help of a programmer.
Also check the texts in the conditions, including the translations.
