So for the Past 2 months I have been hunting most of the local antique stores in my neck of Chicago. And I have come across no shaving gear at all. None, nade, zip....no razors (str8 or DE), brushes, stones, old shaving ad or other barber stuff. I have only moved back to Chicago about 8 months ago from MN, and I know when we hit the stores there...I would see razors ect here and there.

My question is.....how common is it that a area would be this "dry" of all shaving stuff. And do you think i am competeing with a "pro" antique shopper buying up everything they can get there hands on.

Thanks!
