    I could continue this debate for pages, but I'll stick to my above statement.

    As it was pointed out the only way to win an item on ebay is to place the highest bid before the deadline. As to various strategies of how to make this happen they should probably discussed in a separate thread. Seems to me in this case the problem is the price, not the timing.

    I think it's an interesting razor, mostly because it's likely an attempt to capitalize on the more famous brand. I am not bidding on it as I'm not interested in owning it. If anybody here wins it I'd be curious to read their impression with it.

    The razor looks really nice... but it might not be what it looks like... The "finest silver double fully razor" sure does sound like "engrish" to me. I might be wrong, though... this could be the find of the century! A rare razor? Or a fine piece of junk with gold leaf on it?... Anyone willing to drop 26 USD to find out? In the name of cience, maybe?...

    If it can be of any help, I'd be happy to translate ir for you. I'm not an expert, but french is a language I can, more or less, "make do" with...

    EDIT: Now I feel stupid... I went back to see the razor and realized the description is written in english. No wonder I could read it so well, I thought... my french must be in a might fine shape! Turns out I didn't even realize it was NOT in french! Damn you, Joe, for making me feel silly!... On the other hand... it's nice to know that my language skills are Okay!

    It might be that your browser's language skills are better than yours... when I looked at it the first time it was in French... have to check again.
