I don't see a link so I don't know which Craftsman razor you mean but generally speaking, they're very good shavers.
I'll have to look for the link. It's from that art deco place. I believe it's brand new with tortoise shell scales. Make best offer type of deal with a buy it now of $275. I offered $65 -- declined, haha.
Got it. I was mistaken, it's not brand new but in very good condition. Looks to be outside my dwindling budget at the moment but what do you think it's worth?
SEARS CRAFTSMAN STRAIGHT RAZOR, DECO LOOK, TORTOISE - eBay (item 160289528271 end time Dec-02-08 22:12:13 PST)
man, I put a 70 dollar bid on it and the seller rejected it. This has been listed and relisted for MONTHS, and nobody has bit. He wants too damn much IMHO.
I dont know anything about the craftsmen but I think a couple of members here have them and i am sure will chime in ...
as far as that seller I see him buying as much as he is selling. I think he may be buying them and restoring them and reselling.
Ebay is blocked at work, so I can't view the razor. I will say that I have seen at least one Craftsman razor that was exactly the same as an Ern Crown and Sword I once owned. Sears didn't make razors, but rather outsourced the manufacture just as they do with many items today. If this one was made by Ern, it will be a quality razor.
I got my Electric Cutlery straight from this seller. It was in very nice shape. I didn't, however buy it for one of his inflated 'Buy it Now' prices. Always look really close at his pics, not all of his razors are in top shape.
