Thanked: 174What should you do. Send a message to the seller telling them that they are not using e bay to their best advantage. I don't think so.
I think that if you do the research, you are entitled to the prize.
I think that you have a lot of knowledge to know the different makes let alone know when the seller has made a typo or spelling mistake. Knowledge is power.
Some sellers will only sell to their own Country. That's just as stupid because they miss out on international customers and higher prices.
Some sellers advertise every piece of junk that comes through their hands.
It's a market place. Let the buyer beware. Don't you worry about your good fortune or knowledge.

H I G H - E X P L O S I V E S
Lets see. A seller who doesnt know which razor is what who has both high explosives and razors in his possession... What kind of guy do you think this is?

This decent Dorko went zero bid on Belgian ebay (h/t Bart from another thread). Now Belgium is a nice little country, but it's LITTLE!
This guy would have cleaned up on big ebay what with all the anglophone Dorko fiends around.Last edited by shuredgefan; 06-19-2008 at 09:52 PM. Reason: typo

Welcome to my world.
It is easier if you look at attractively priced and 0-1 bidders.
if you find someone who doesn't seem to know razors, check their other items (even if this one is labeled right) to see if they mislabeled another.Last edited by Pyment; 06-21-2008 at 01:19 AM.

It looks like the Dorkop fiends have spent their dough for a while:

Darn it! This forum is costing me money again! Being an Anglophile, it's been irking me that I don't have a Sheffield razor. So I find this thread, then find this! The scales look like crap, but the blade isn't rusting off, so it just might be worth $11.
