Thread: Please mind : stolen MOP & gold pair of razors

All right, final update : they've reached destination.

Afore mentionned destination being the workshope of on of the most skilled restauration artists there is.
When I get them back (in a few weeks/months, I don't care for the delay, what must be done must be done with the most extreme care), obviously not by any transportation service, I will, indeed, as a thanks and an apology for the FUD, post pictures.

Thanks again to all of you

Want pictures, bought into post......

I have a couple MIA at the moment that are being chaced from the U.S. side by the seller I am hoping for the same been over 6 weeks now since they were posted
Don't and won't trust Ebay Global shipping service until they front
Everything is tracked until they got hold of them then everything goes cold

confirming stra8s stolen, package found by Fedex but empty

glad to hear your beauties have been received

I am so sad to hear that, truly.

By "a couple", did you mean a pair, or figuratively 2 or more razors ? Sucks

You should be able to get your money since you didn't get your razors - after all that's what that expensive shipping is supposed to cover.

That at least would be true.

But money often doesn't cut it. If it was a vintage straight, its impossible to replace, if it was a custom, hard and long, and the result will differ slightly...

I feel for you man

Oh yeah, money is never enough simply because my purchase means that I want the razors more than I want the money, but if I can't get the razors for whatever reason getting back the money is still something even if I'm still out of my time and my hope.

I admit they may not be as flash as the MOP & Gold pair or all that flash to many at all,
but the "WR" stamped W&B with the thumb notch over 6/8 is the only one with the shape & size I have found on the net like it yet,
I am sure many another RAD hoarders have one in their collections somewhere in the world but will most likely will never surface in good shape & at a reasonable price either LOL

Well in a sense who really gives a fsck about flashy?
No, really?
Seen them, understand how you carefully chose them, I hope I understand how you feel.

thats it
it is the non replaceable value of what was to be a new heirloom keeper for sure
