take a look at this... to me? i see a plain W&B that needs some serious restoration work..... $200+?????? :roflmao unless that was used by the prince of wales, i cant see the value in this... but i could be wrong...
It is ridiculous!
i mean no offense to the guy... i dont know anything myself... but when a razor ad says
"Blade seems to be sharp."
you are just signing off any potential possibility of anyone considering you credible.... and thus, would just confirm that you really dont know why the hell you slapped a $200 price tag on that hunk of rusted steel... lol
You can ask any price you want on Ebite... Getting it on the other hand....
oh yeah i know.. but its a buy it now item, and from what i understand, they charge you a set fee on that... and for $200, thats going to be a bite in his pocket when it doesnt sell... you would think creating a buy it now price, you might want to research what its worth... so you have at least SOME chance at getting something out of your buck lol
Some Civil war reenactor will probably buy it up.
Haven't you all never heard of antique Wade and Butter knives? Very rare indeed. 200 guineas would even be cheap! :roflmao :roflmao
Don't forget, he also has a Best Offer option, which could well mean he'll sell it for much less. I recently found this Dorko which had a Buy it Now price of $230, plus $10 shipping. I offered $60, including shipping (i.e. 75 percent below his BIN price) and the seller took it.
Of course, that W&B looks really rough, so it probably isn't worth even 25 percent of his BIN price . . .
yeah but like i said, there is a % paid to even list a BIN item, right? why pay all that for an item than 99% odds speak for will not sell? granted, the odds are better than the lottery, but they are still crappy lol i can see him taking a B/O on it... but stiill... the BIN price is a bit hefty... its almost like hes encouraging a B/O auction... but then, why not set a reserve price? isnt it cheaper that way?
I have a full set of 6 of those, yours for a measly $1000. And by the way, the razor that started this all off? Well, it DID belong to HRH Wales - I saw him using it last week in the back of his VW campervan. Honest. :wQuote:

i offered him $5.50 ! which with the $15.12 for the shipping is WAY over valued.
That razor has been up for a long time, He actually lowered the price it was a lot more.
