Could it be the onset of RAD ? Congrats on the haul ..... enjoy !

Great will you slow down a little or this is just start?

I was going to say that as RAD hits you will want better razors and spend more money for them. You will have to sell these razors for cheap.

Looks like you have a nice start on a rotation, so Why waste money? Start buying (slightly) more expensive/higher quality razors right away.

Maybe like this one:

make him an offer around $50, he might take it (notice the shipping is pricey)

The others here can tell you if $50 is a good price.

I think ebay straight razor values are rising because more people are having fun - that can't be all wrong can it?

I have gotten 3 razors from this seller and he has been pretty good to deal with. I got my Dorko (little used 6/8) for $70 (pretty good considering the crazy prices they are going for) and a Iberia for $40 (which turned out to be a pretty good shaver).

You could probably get that Daveso he has for $30.

Hey Folks,

This is actually the beginning for me. I have a Dovo Shavette but that was my first hybrid straight razor shaver. I was watching Lynn's video, The World of Straight Razors, and I think he cursed me. I'd be watching the video and he'd mention a razor and I'd run to ebay to see if there was one available in good condition. The two that I just received look really good considering they're pretty old. No rust at all. Just a bit of grime and tarnish. I need to buy a Dremel and clean them up a few times with a felt pad or two.

I think this is it for awhile. I have a few more that I'm watching on ebay but I'm also looking at a Thiers Issard and a Dovo. Of course, one thing at a time for me. So, the Dremel is next. lol Yay, power tools!

Oh, one more question guys. What is RAD? Is it Razor Attention Deficit, or something crazy like that?
