Reputable Seller on EBAY?

So who do you guys trust when it comes to buying equipment on ebay?

I'm still new & don't want to shell out good $$ only to get a fake reproduction razor or a lesser quality brush than what was expected. :rant:

I would like to acquire multiple razors and brushes to figure out what I really like. So any input is greatly appreciated!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks,
Darrell

Razor seller Altima55 is a reputable seller who un-pins,restores,sanitizes,re-pins,and hones his razors.All of his are shave-ready and really nice.

Check the seller's feedback whoever he is. Also check out the SRP classifieds. There are reputable sellers there and in general better deals than you will find on ebay.

dbullfrog gives good descriptions and also has shave-ready blades. I experienced some problems, since he doesn't ship worldwide, but I could fix them (good communication).

I just tool a look in the classifieds and there is a TI at a great price from Joe Chandler along with some Mastro Livi razors if you want to get into customs . One ebay seller that comes to mind is cederfurnitureman. A good guy IMO.

open_razor was pretty good. cederfurnitureman, Quinton seems a very decent man & has used a straight for something like 30 years, so should know his way round a hone. Altima55 is highly regarded, but as a result his stuff attract a lot of bids.

there are few guys that sell good razors on ebay. i don't expect them to be shave-ready anymore unless i buy it from a reputable member here.

I will add a plus 1 for altima55 as well as dbullfrog. I have purchased from both and they both provide excellent products as well as top notch service from both.

Just my 2 cents...

Best,

I have had good to great experiences with the following over the past six months:

mr_barence: Based right in Solingen, digs up fine German razors

philguer01: Based in France, fine French and German razors

lax1mxr: Based in the US, restores the razors he sells, does nice work and knows how to polish and sharpen a razor. Like altima55, but not as well-known. Less competition...;)

Our own portal5 (taylors1000) sells great British and German razors out of the UK via eBay and his own site, don't know where he finds them all.

Our own OLD_SCHOOL (not sure of eBay ID) sells via his own site, forum classifieds, and eBay. Japanese and western razors, and incredibly nice Japanese natural hones.
