Certainly not in that condition though? It has to be an insane collector. There's one in the Classifieds for less than this!

The one in the classifieds is a different razor (not for barber's use). These have been going for over $250 lately so it sounds crazy but this one isn't a bad deal

Wasn't me either.

I just got this one for $19.50.

A little project for me.

Buying a set of broken scales w/ unrestored blade for $75 less than the going rate? Uh-uh.

(Cracked) original scales and the blade appears to be in great shape. These razors are pretty rare. If the scales weren't cracked and the blade was shinier, it probably would have fetched $300+.

I still think in the current market, it's not a bad price for that blade. I would have expected $225 or so.

I also personally think it looks awesome just like it is. I'd keep it as is if it were me, both the cracked original scales and the worn look. Looks like the scales still function and I like the worn look on that blade.

She is a beaut.

That blade looks great! The scales are a little worse for worn, but I don't see anything wrong with the blade at all. Maybe could use a little polish but that's it. It's a little steep for me, but I've seen them go for more.

Pyment, that's a beautiful razor you got for very little! You better post pictures of that when you get it shining.
