    Wow, if I had one of those and someone offered me over $300 I'd be overjoyed. I never understand those scale collectors.

    Scales are nice,but having such a high reserve. I wonder how high the reserve was? Or better yet how high the seller was when he listed it?

    It always amazes me how much the collectors will pay for scales! The razor's nice enough, but not that nice!

    I sometmies write the seller privately and ask how much the reserve is so I don't my time if I think it is too high. Most of the time I get a response...

    Those are wonderfully ornate scales, but to put it in perspective they are no more ornate than jewellery being made in China that sells for a few bucks. A skilled carver can do stuff like that in his sleep.

    OLD FANTASTIC ELECTRIC CUTLERY STRAIGHT RAZOR - eBay (item 160319453479 end time Mar-10-09 13:56:56 PDT)

    The relisted auction has a buy-it-now of $450, nobody has taken the seller up on it yet.
    I always thought these type of scales are made in a mold, just not too many of them, like the lobster ones.

    Oh and since ebay auctions eventually expire I'll put in the picture so that the thread still makes sense in 3 months.
