No matter the product the creator of the product and the name alone is responsible for the price in many circumstances. It has little to do with intrinsic differences in the item. Think a Rolex is worth the asking price based on it's component parts?

$4,200 for the razor , $14 for economy shipping , and no returns accepted . What a joke! The seller has every right to ask whatever price they want , but that doesn't mean someone has to buy it . He's fishing for a sucker . It will be interesting to see if he gets a bite .

You know this thread is a perfect example of exactly why we do NOT allow Valuations and or Vendor bashing on SRP even E-bay vendors... We are always more lenient of these rules in the E-bay forum but even here it gets an argument started

Value truly is a moving target...

I think it is time to shut this thread down and chalk it up to a wise lesson of why we have these rules on SRP...

PS: On a personal note I have it in my watch list I want to see if it sells
