    Default A Mistake ?

    I've bought two razors from this vendor and they were very good.
    But it seems he's using the same photos to sell another razor:

    Hmm, it does specify photos are of the actual item, so I'm with Hirlau.

    Quite a few ebay sellers get their photos and descriptions mixed up. Nothing unusual.

    " You have to pay for the razor within 3 days of bidding or a claim will be filed and the item re-listed " :<0) I am with the mixed up picture theory. Send the seller a note.
    Good judgment comes from experience, and experience....well that comes from poor judgment.

    Sounds like a greedy person afraid of where his next dollar is coming from.

    Just curious, do you have the razor? As posted above probably just a mistake, but I would send the seller a little note.

    Stuff happens,I do not do much ebay anymore but used to do alot.
    Sold a very spendy custom Loom strop couple years back.About 4 mos. later I put the same exact strop up again,just pulled puter pics.
    It sold,went to pack it it up, could not find it because I already sold and shipped it.
    Did a refund to the new buyer plus PP fees,he was very pissed but what elase could I do?

    Hmmm this rings alarm bells for me, I'd definitely contact the seller.

    Happened to me recently, but that was for a factory blade with minor waterspots - turns out the seller had a few with the same defect (which is impossible in this situation). Hope this all works out for the best for you guys.

    I got the razor just before Christmas and it was as described, no problems
    I've just given it a quick clean so far....
