    It's baiting the hook and casting the line and seeing if anyone bites. He also has a C-Mon Blackie listed here for a bargain price of $165. It is a bargain because of the crack in the blade. I think Artifacts has been drinking the Kool Aid.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    That seller outbid glen on that one and then immediately listed it for more than double what he paid. We don't hold that seller in high regard that's for sure.

    According to the seller, ebay is simply his razor collection image gallery
    I'M FINE WITH KEEPING IT IN MY COLLECTION, AND NOT SELLING IT. I REALLY JUST WANTED TO SHARE IT'S BEAUTY WITH THE EBAY RAZOR COLLECTORS.

    Yeah, yeah, right that's why he listed it immediately after he beat me on it, my bid was $174 he won at $175 and listed it at $275, it didn't sell, so now after 2 months he ups the price

    It is no secret that I have no love lost for this guy.....

    I am always a bit leery of the sellers that take alot of space to define shipping and other mumbo jumbo and barely uses 1/4 of the mumbo jumbo space for the description of the actual article.

    Imhe, this type of seller usually overprices their articles.

    Aside from Artifacts usually overpricing his razors another thing I don't like is that he will many times take multiple partial photos of the razor rather then a good shot of both sides.
