    Agree with you there...he's definitely doing some gaming, and you have to have a good eye, and even then it's a crap shoot...but agreed, he's sell you anything and tell you it's the bee's knee's!

    Just went and looked at his listings again, and suddenly I remembered why I shouldn't look there again having seen the various, "Men's Sissy Pants" he's selling, it occurred to me that maybe he doesn't have a clue about razors, and just figured the photography layout took good looking pics and that's about all the thought he put into it...and being that he wouldn't say, "For Sale, this POS razor, crap condition"...it may just simply be that simple, nothing sinister...I mean the guy is selling....blech...need eye bleach, can't wash away the images....

    Some things ya just can't unsee.

    Here I thought they'd be something in velour corduroy maybe. Those were sissy pants when I was a lad.
    Sheesh.

    I must say when I started this thread, I just wanted to fire out a quick warning to the community. I had no idea it would go on for so long.

    ok, razors are in. Two Parkers, and a BenHur

    The Ben was listed as a Solingen, but there are no markings on the blade to lead to that conclusion, and the blade size and shape sure looks like Japanese to me. Don't know really, and its not a big deal. Its a very nice little razor.

    The two Parkers were fairly represented in my opinion, and all flaws were there to see if you looked closely. Slight frowns are difficult to see, and easy enough to remove, but I didn't find anything that would count as "deceptive" Certainly his auctions are more honest now then they were previously.
    Perhaps he learned a little. pics can be posted if anybody really cares.
