SHAVE READY KASTOR BROS. Straight Razor Bakelite BOXED - eBay (item 330256188674 end time Aug-01-08 18:00:00 PDT)

i'm new and i put a bid on this razor
tell me what you think?

Not a razor that I'm familiar with, but I do believe I've gotten a blade or two from that seller, and IIRC he's easy to deal with.

I'm a newbie, too---just bought my first vintage blade off ebay a few days ago.

I'm no expert, but that razor looks to be in excellent condition and well-cared for. I think it would be an excellent razor to start with. I would be prepared, however, for the price to rocket up in the last 5 minutes of the auction. I'm guessing it could go for $50 or more because of its pristine condition.

I'll let others, who know a lot more than I, comment on this though.

Good find! Hope you win the auction.

Moved this to the more appropriate forum - Auction Talk.

Please PM or email if you have any questions, problems. Thanks!

Looks like new, wouldt be a bad buy IF the other side looks as good ask for more pics or ask about other side, keep your emails between you and seller safe, do not delete until after its feedback time and you are satisfied. 20$ tops. somebody else may have another opinion, this is just mine.Good Luck!

Thanks for all the help
i look forward to my first shave

I have heard that he's a good seller. I haven't heard if his razors are actually shave ready so if you need to send it out to get honed add about another 20$ or so.
I have to agree with nun at 20$. After that you might as well check out the classifieds here and get one that is shave ready.

BTW I like the site in your sig, very cool music
