    Default What do you think about this price?

    Puma 95 ended up selling for $152.50. Do Pumas always fetch this much?

    Puma has reputation of great shavers, that is enough to bring the price up a lot, look at what filarmonica is worth these days...

    Imo that's high given the condition, but they are killer shavers.

    Nice razor. But at the end of the day, it is just another vintage round point from Solingen. Granted, it has double tempered steel (aka Dobl Temple...), but at the end of the day, whoever bought it paid a 50% ghetto markup for a razor in OK shape based on brand reputation alone, certainly not on rarity.

    As an aside, the razors that are really sought after in Germany do not include Puma (or Filarmonica, Dubl Duck or Wade & Butcher). Seems to be an American, or SRP, phenomenon.
