    I assumed they were newer than that but upon looking at them again, I suspect your suspicion is correct. Maybe the basket is intact?

    Bold faced lie, or complete ignorance. I have contacted seller to inform them of their mistake, but suspect the former is the case.

    As long as the buyer doesn't it doesn't matter to them I guess.

    It could be shortened if it was cheap enough.

    After seeing these examples of "razors with some wear" I can only think the sellers are hoping some fool will actually pay for the junk. They are counting on the stupidity of people.
    As one comedian said: I never met a person who said their IQ was less than 100 but I have had my doubts about quite a few.
    If you don't care where you are, you are not lost.
