I'm still fairly new to straight razors, and I'm pretty certain I'm in the early stages of r.a.d. After lurking around and reading some of the positive things about Filarmonica's, I thought I would start looking at ebay and what not. The prices have gotten crazy though! One of the last EPBD's I watched went for close to $400 bones where just a few weeks ago $200-$250 was winning. I wish my 401K saw those kind of gains!

I know its basic supply and demand. I am sure they're also awesome shavers. I guess my question is whether some of you think this is going to be a trend that dies down...or not?
