Thanked: 1Don't get confused!. Almost all in this place have chosen a straight razor just for shaving (that is the ONLY why in the end!).
If you have all the money in the world, would that justify that you must pay for some blade with no use just for the fun to pay for it with no other reason that just "to have it?" A real useful SR would cost "as little" as 120 dollars NEW! Why pay for a SR that requires so much effort to make it useful, money that should support the survivors in that trade?.
So, people, go and buy an "inverse smiling blade" (almost unusable and I want to see how it is honed!) for more than 100 dollars when you can have a new Dovo or Boker and support the only people left that do that kind of stuff.
Anyway… In forums like this is it obvious what vintage razors are worth and it shows… Shame for that the compulsory buyer that takes away so much fun for those that know and are praised but not really heard.

Thanked: 480I dont know what the razor was in the original post, I am assuming a W&B Special, but a quick look at where prices are today (4 years later) and suddenly, its really not so surprising.
