    If you want to discuss general values of razors as an abstract exercise that's fine however specific prices for specific pieces is a no no. Anything that would resemble a valuation we stay away from.

    If you must sell it as a kit, and it doesn't sell for the price you're asking, your potential buyers have told you it's priced too high. Add value or lower the price and try again.

    Some times it is just a matter of letting it ride. Keep it up for as long as it takes. I have watched items go though several cycles before they sell and I have had items go through just as many as well. I just sold a camera that had been on the auction block for three months, just let it be.

    You could certainly keep relisting it and if the market conditions change in the future to more favorable it may sell at the price you want. But there is no guarantee - only the most inexperienced buyers wouldn't check the past history and see that it's been for sale for a while. Which tells them immediately that you're asking more than the market value.

    I'm in the if you want it to sell in the present market lower the price or add value camp (even by splitting the lot).
