I think the prices are going up primarily because the rate of increase of people looking for old razors is higher than the rate of increase in the supply of such razors.

I can buy old razors that are at least as good as the pumas for much less, but only because I haven't participated in creating a hype around those other brands, so the pool of people wanting them is smaller.
