Thread: seller 7 razors for newbies, 6 shave ready

Last week I bought a really nice boker from this guy and picked it up in person. We talked for awhile and I told him about this forum and a need for good shave-ready razors that weren't too expensive. He says he has a LOT of razors so I keep checking his items. This is a really nice guy who seemed willing to help me out because I was new to straights..he gave me a brush and a strop. Tonight I checked under "sellers other items and saw 7 nice razors..6 of them shave ready.
In the description of the first one he had this to say..

"I’m at a stage in my life (late!) where I hate to see fully functional things (or people) become discarded just because they aren’t as pretty as they were when they were new (young). So I’ve decided this week to pull out some razors from my collection that I know to be good shavers, even though they aren’t necessarily flawless and list them on Ebay. Also, a conversation with a friend (hi Michael) made me realize that there are probably many people who want to buy a good shaving razor but don’t necessarily want to pay for the prestige of a Dovo or a Duck, etc. To that end I will post several nice but lesser-pedigreed razors, so please take a look."

For me this is a newbies dream. I want to get my shavers first and worry about collecting later. Here's a link to the razors listed..

oops, sorry. I'm fallout55 on ebay. In my first month of the throes of RAD. It seems I have it so bad that I'm actually grateful when I'm outbid sometimes..I just got carried away while writing this post looking at ebay..
Are you 4wwrepair?

He added 5 more today. RAD is bad..this man is torturing me. MUST have this one(can't afford it though)

Pretty cheap right now the steal of the decade, if it stays as low... but now that you advertised it I doubt it


Don't worry, we would have found it on our own too, I was just teasing

Dollars to donuts says that one won't be staying low.
Just my ever so humble and newbie perception...
Ken.

If it follows the recent trends I've noticed these past three days, the bids will e relatively low until the last fifteen seconds of the auction. Then the sniper software will cross-bid severely.

Last one went for $80 + shipping afair so I think you're right

Whoa

Already $42 today with 6 days left. I'm thinking it will go for $300. His Henkels just brought $224 this week. In an attempt to control my RAD I got in touch with my inner child. I'm afraid my inner child has RAD too, now!!
