Now that sucks. Hope you get it sorted out.

I dont know if its the same person selling them on Ebay, but there is that one fellow who advertises "New Old Stock" as found in his fathers basement. etc etc. somebody joked a few months back that with as many as he was "finding in the basement" that the story might grow to "My father owned the company"
Perhaps that actually happened!

^^ it's not the same seller.

This seller, SonnyXYBoy, sold me a 6/8 Globusmen (the one that Neil honed), it wasn't a 6/8 though but a 11/16, seems to be his way of messur them (which shouldn't be the case with someone who knows what he's doing). Seller didn't answear my query about the size issue either.

These razors aren't the same as the older Gold ones, rather big difference in how delicate the grind's, but these newer ones aren't bad at all.

Let me ask you a question. Today I saw an item on e-bay which is described as razors from the last production of Globusmann of about 1960. I couldn`t find anything about it. Maybe somebody has any info about this razors? Can it be the FAKE? I have a doubt, because I know nothing about Globusmann.
Here is some pics, and thank you in advance.

I think the main clue to this one is the pinning. Those are a modern pin that you can buy from several suppliers.

They sure aren't fakes, genuine 60's old stock blades, but put together with "modern" scales and pinning.
