Thread: Is this Fili legit?

How can you have any doubt when the seller makes such a promise?

Looks like the result of a translation computer.

It looks good to me but I wouldn't know how to tell otherwise, I just know that there have been some bogus Filarmonicas showing up on eBay lately. The seller has 100% positive feedback and they've sold Filis in the past. They listed this one previously as a "buy it now" for $459.00 with no takers. I've only been straight shaving for a short while (a few months) and I'm just starting to build a collection. I've got 8 razors now (my girlfriend seriously thinks I've lost my mind) that range from ok to pretty nice, but I'm still looking for that first gem. Filarmonicas like this have attracted me since I started to become interested in straight shaving about 6 or 8 months ago. I think it might be the 50's/60's pastel look that does it for me for some reason (don't know why though, I was born in the 70s). Anyway, I'm really hoping that this is the real thing and that it will somehow miraculously stay in my price range. Any info you could give would be greatly appreciated.
In return, a blue thing scratching its head:
Thanks guys.

BTW if this is the real thing and you feel compelled to bid, just realize that you may be personally responsible for a grown man doing a little of this:

Yeah its legit, I bought a beautiful 13 Muleta from this dude.
The price started fair I think 9.99 but the aggressive bidding made me pay 200.
Definitely overspent but I had the same RAD for fillies then and couldn't help it.
I do not regret it as it was NOS and all I did was clean off the oil and shave after stropping.
I didn't hone it as I was curious to see what their factory edge was and I still haven't honed it as it still shaves BBS.
This guy selling these is a good man in my opinion he over delivered as far as I am concerned, in spite of his broken english

You can count me out on bidding as I hate to see a grown man cry.

"It puts the shave lotion on, then it puts it in the basket."

Ooooooh, creepy.
