    Poor quality pictures for a professional auctioneer! Caveat the 13 bidder's premium!

    Yeah, what's that about? I've never seen that before.

    Should read: 13% bidder's premium.

    Indeed, and even with the poor pictures, it is apparent that many of the razors have defects not disclosed in the text. For instance, some of the "mint" razors have pitting/rust of the type celluloid rot induces . . .

    Did you scroll down and see the large pics? They were good enough to see they have a wide interpretation of what "mint" means....I have placed some absentee bids on some interesting pieces, but not expecting to find any treasures......out of over 300, I found 4 of interest.

    That 13% premium sucks, and then you've got to get the shipping arranged as well...

    I would think this forum is for discussing specific auction items. To me, this comes off as promoting (spam). Just like those credit card applications in the mail. I don't want them foisted off on me, and I know where to go IF I need one. Not to mention the buying premium.

    Well, I think the group as a whole can be seen as an interesting item. Besides, it's not portal5 who's selling.
