Thread: wade & butcher resale value!!! And funny story

But there never was an "argument", Glen. The original poster wanted to know why prices for one of the most commonplace brands of razors were absurdly high, and he got several logical answers. And some stuff about American "cars", but let's not argue about those, please.

Perhaps you should go buy a sense of humor

Try E-bay Maybe UK ebay


some of you new guys just have to accept the simple fact you are late to the party

Huge W&B's, Filli's, DD, Henckels, Escher's, Nakayama, Coticules, etc: etc: all used to be much cheaper..

Never paid more then $30 for a W&B but then again SRP used to have 2800 members when I joined it, and it was about the only SR forum on the internet Times have changed the amount of people chasing the razors have grown but tens of thousands sooooooo the prices went up... Wow doesn't exactly take a economic genius to figure that out

It’s all Wolfpack34’s fault…

Every time he post one if his gorgeous Sheffield restores, half the guys go straight to EBay and place a bid…

Really it is all our faults, we keep talking about them and drive the price up…

But Mike is still the ring leader…

I often wonder if the current restored razors look better than they did when originally manufactured because people like Wolfpack34 do such amazing work.

I had no clue that u had the ability to buy a moon pie for a nickle in your day old timer
It must have been nice to buy straights at that price, I always thought that they were collectors items and were priced the way they are now. Makes perfect sense when u know the straight razor community has grown ten fold over the years.

I'm sure I can figure out how to get on eBay for the UK but what your saying is by doing so you can get better prices due to the there not being much demand?
