    Well on a sellers perspective, I don't mind too much, because I sell some razors and if other sellers are setting their prices ridiculously high... Then the buyers that see the crazy high prices will come back my way.
    But on an ethical level, I think it's no good.
    It's just my way I guess, but I don't like the feeling of making unfair deals, even if the buyer knows no better.

    Yep, I think many "pickers" try to capitalize on other people's mistakes or ignorance.
    But I guess for every fool there's a con.
    Maybe they will reply to my helpful message.. Hehehe

    Here you go! Guess to some it's a shameful amount to spend.. To others no big deal..
    Around $870 after shipping!
    ""Bengali razor, TR Cadman & Sons, Sheffield England, 1 3/16” mega blade"".

    A big blade, though some serious pits. I could buy a considerable hoard of Sheffields for that price..
    Oops forgot the pic.

    Im with ya Mike T.
    I think id rather buy a couple handfuls of razors than to spend that one one. Too bad about the deep pitting on that one.
    It's just Sharpening, right?

    I would hope that a decimal point was misplaced--

    No different than those slimy vendors on Amazon or eBay selling regular items at several hundred percent over average retail pricing, Roy.
