    Thumbs down Got Burned

    Won razor on ebay stated to be Stainless Steel in Excellent Used Condition [EUC], at least that's what I thought it meant. Received and it looked GREAT, all shiny and oiled,but with one problem, stuck to the package it was in was a sticker saying "MADE in PAKISTAN". My jaw dropped. Thinking it's SS maybe it won't be as bad as the others IE ZEEpk. It shaved some arm hair so this morning I lathered up and got about half a shave before having to go to another blade.
    Moral of story; don't buy a nameless blade unless your sure of what it is.
    Consider where you will spend ETERNITY !!!!!!

    Well, as you have written in in your sig-line:
    "You can choose the actions or you can choose the consequences, but you can't choose both."

    E-buy is a crap shoot. You should know that...

    "Cheap Tools Is Misplaced Economy. Always buy the best and highest grade of razors, hones and strops. Then you are prepared to do the best work."

    If it only gave you half a shave, as will be the case with Pakistani razors you have the right to dispute it on eBay as not being "as described". A razor should function as a razor not a "razorlike object"
    The white gleam of swords, not the black ink of books, clears doubts and uncertainties and bleak outlooks.
