Why? Because I have never seen one like that before. If its the only one, it must be worth more!
I happen to be the only one of me you will ever see, so I am rather valuable too!
Besides that, it wont sell, a dozen people will write in telling him what they will pay him for it, and then it will be re-listed in the future with a reserve price he determined from all the offers. :borg:
scale collectors
weight watchers
Richard Simmons
Wait, what?
If the snake jumped off the scale and crawled up my arm I'd buy it.:)
I was kind of disappointed to see only one scale has a snake on it.
Scale collector... was that pun intended.Quote:

On the other hand, what is the possible attraction of shaving with a razor with an evil, grinning serpent on the scales?! I mean, it's definitely bad-a**, but would you even want to pick up something like that in the morning? Gives me the creeps, actually.
Utopian didn't know you were a Richard Simmons fan. Who would've thought eh? How's about I make you a set of custom pink scales on a vintage boker blade in exchange for that Black on white 1056 you've been holding onto? It could be quite fabulous. :rolleyes: Hell i'll even throw in a copy of the producers.Quote:

I can't imagine with a starting bid just a little south of 5 Bens why the entire straight razor world isn't beating a path to this guys door.:p But seriously folks, the scales are pretty cool and quite unique but I don't know that they're that cool. He's WAAAYY too proud of this razor.
the razor is now available for 500$ buy it now, with make an offer option. check his ebay items
