Ok, these kinds of listings don't come around too often, so enjoy this one for what it's worth.
A badly-chipped, red "amber" brush, unrestored and with worn-out bristles, all yours for . . . . $300. Or you can try to make an offer for less (although at that price, it's sure to go quickly!) Free shipping too!
Here's the link:

I'll race you to see who can hit "buy it now" first... (Just give me your eBay login first so that I can make sure which account is getting this incredibly valuable brush)
:hmmm: For $300 bucks, you would expect a few less contradictions!Quote:
We are pleased to offer from important private collection this extremely rare antique Art-Deco cherry red amber/bakelite/faturan shaving brush.50 grams heavy. 100% genuine amber!
The big picture grosses me out, the guy's like a leper or something... Flakes all over the handle... yuck.
Yea, good illustration of another basic rule for eBay selling -- unless you have a beautiful, young English girl to pose next to your shaving gear (see below), then keep all human bits out of the photography.
