Title Vintage T HESSEN BRUCH CO STRAIGHT CASE & RAZOR NR
The case in very good condition. The razor is in very used condition. Pretty worn.

I've just taken delivery of a razor "in good condition". It has a deep split in the blade with a lump of hairy string jammed into the split.
I've contacted the seller, who has 100% feedback; for the moment.

I'm a firm believer in free trade. If someone wants to ask outrageous prices for something, and someone else wants to pay it, who am I to interfere?

But I do find these postings entertaining. Thanks.

You can also use "Seller Ratings" to leave anonymous feedback on the performance of your seller, there are 5 cateogories.

The seller has no way of knowing who left that feedback.

This razor just caught my eye. It was the tiny picture in the search list that called my attention to it. I love the description:

The blade does have a section cut out of it. It is in good condition.

Yup... open a bottle of beer and then go shave... not necessarily in that order.

Once again with the cheap shaving soap. This guy actually says,

My father sold the product back in either the late 70's or early 80's. I also am sure that the company no longer exists.

I bought a bar of this two weeks ago at Wal-Mart for 97 cents. I sent him a message with a link to the product @ drugstore.com. One thing to try and bluff people into buying this, but another to just lie about it.

Well I got an answer back from this seller. It says just, "then don't bid on it."
Is there some kind of rule about this on ebay? Before I sent him the link I could give him the benifit of a doubt that maybe he didn't know any better and thought the company really no longer existed. Now I'm thinking about asking ebay about the rules. I'd like to think I don't have to check everything I read on ebay because sellers can make up anything they want.

The condition of this razor is used but very good (and it's good to collect and use!)

I like how they've blued it to give it an antique / rustic look ....
I'm sure the seller has used it on a daily basis
