    Gotta love all the "Antique,Vinatge" Sweeney Todd razors on the Bay
    The white gleam of swords, not the black ink of books, clears doubts and uncertainties and bleak outlooks.

    I didn't think it had been long enough for my high school graduation to qualify as a year of antiquity!

    The razor is vintage because they decided it is based off the book, not the movie.

    And some of these razors must need a lot of packaging. Apparently some sellers need over $10 to ship a basic straight razor or other small item across the U.S.
    I guess a $3 stamp from USPS with tracking isn't up to their standards.

    A single photo, with every blade closed but one. No returns.... I wrote and asked
    "Are any chipped, cracked, or broken?"
    The response? "Some are, most are not"
    The way I learned both math, and flimflam, "most" is anything more than 1/2
    I could be wrong, and for whomever has bid on this lot's sake, I hope I am.
    But to me thats shite.

    His description doesn't describe the damage and his picture is concealing any so that could be to HIS detriment if a buyer was unsatisfied.

    Not really. His policy is no returns, and nowhere does he make any claims to the condition of the razors. This is a true case of Caveat Emptor (Let the Buyer Beware)

    Literally, if somebody decides to take the chance with this, and they dont like what they get, it will be a case of "buyers remorse" and Ebay will disallow that as a reason for a dispute.

    I wouldn't be so sure eBay would rule this a case of caveat emptor if the buyer felt they were not given adequate information and the pictures concealed problems, but I'm not going find out.

    Found that razor onimaru55 has been drooling over.

    Does the profile or the aluminum/stainless combo make it so "vintage style"?
