How things feel wrong to late
So this razor... I believe it will go off in my price range (also called cheap, relatively speaking). I was right on that (almost). but it is funny how much more you see and don't see when you actually win the auction #111214877468. I have already PM'ed one of the forums respected historians and thought I would get some more opinions if there were any. Then I really look at the razor once I have won the bid war. There are several things that simply do not make sense on this razor. Like Where's Waldo, can you find them? I know, it is not recommended that new guys play Ebay, but...come on......It's like saying don't think about a Pink Elephant with a gorilla riding it wearing a cowboy hat, bolo tie, and top hat.

If I take a look at the symbols, I would think it's a Herder...but then again, it doesn't say Solingen or Herder...

His razors always look clean but his photography is so weird. The cross keys were there, and it looks ok from the weird perspectives. I have bought from this seller too but have not received my razors yet. As always waiting on the post.

that is a distinct advantage. So the question then is, are the razors very nice and just his photography weird, or is he trying to hide flaws in his weird photos? I am so far off the beaten path that everyone is closer than I am.

Haven't gotten it yet, if I was a praying man I would be praying that I get to the postbox before my ladyfriend as it is supposed to arrive this Saturday but could take until Wednesday. I'll let you know what I see. My nightmare is a Modified Gold Dollar and a Have a Nice Day sticker.
