It is supply and demand. And hype. All of which are high. Very high. At any random point, type "wade butcher razor" in the Ebay search. Right now, this search gives 185 hits. One hundred and eighty-five. Granted, not all of them are 8/8, but when browsing you will find a fair share of them. At any given point in time (the same for e.g. Friodurs and Dubl Ducks in decent to good shape).

This is why I sigh deeply every time I read the phrase "rare Wade & Butcher". Apart from maybe "The Ottoman and Egyptian Razor", there really is no such thing as a rare Wade & Butcher. Not even close. It is like saying 1970's and -80's Ford Mustangs are hard to come by.
