    I would like to believe the seller obviously has no idea what he is selling other then the fact that he can make money off of it and is not purposely trying to rip people off, unfortunately both seem to be typical on fleabay and there appears to be more and more of it with shaving items

    How in the world did the barber's notch move closer to the edge? I didn't think that was possible.

    I definitely would've contacted the seller if I had an Ebay account. Imagine cutting yourself with such a chip in the blade because someone told you you can use it?

    Here is another lovely example item # 220431782491 if the link doesn't work. Seller says it is "used but very usable".
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    He says: ready to be used. He is right IMHO. You can use it for opening letters, cutting butter etc. Nitpickers will notice you can't shave w/ it. Minor detail of course.

    I understand that some people are not quite aware of how sharp shave ready is & mistake a sharp edge accordingly. Of course, there are other's who are just w@nkers.

    Maybe the seller plans to send it to Lynn for sharpening before it goes to the buyer?

    Find me on SRP's official chat in ##srp on Freenode. Link is at top of SRP's homepage
