Thread: Any idea why this one didn't go???

Funny colour of the tang. To me it just does not look shiny enough for goldwash. Did you ask for detailed pics?

Lousy picture and a high starting bid

Too high of an initial bid, it's an auction not a retail outlet. See it all the time at regular auctions. The auctioneer will start the bidding and no one bids hoping the price will drop. When it drops sufficiently someone will make a bid and then the bid wars are on and the damn thing will sell for more then was originally asked.

Only 40 feedback points, not selling anything else (razors), no detailed pics, not much write-up, no returns.
And the icing on the cake... high initial bid...

I guess it all adds up.

Mate

All of the above comments are correct and valid... I'm still kind'a surprised someone didn't take a swing at it... they're much sort after razors.

If he'd started this auction at 0.99c he'd probably have gotten 200 bucks.

Might have gone if he'd shipped to Australia....

hey jimbo, if you really want a razor and the seller won't ship to .au, i'd do a forwarding for you. but i suspect you probably wanted an excuse not to get this one - shiny but 150? i guess not my thing

Thanks Gugi. Yeah, you're right. Got enough razors anyway...
