Thanked: 1371It's on the high side for a collection that large, but $22 per razor is hardly insanity if they are all in good condition.

I was thinking the same. Usually razor lots on ebay go for around $12 a straight (give or take a couple of dollars) but you'd expect that these are in pretty good condition if he's prepared to put them in display cases like he's showing in the pictures. All you need is a Filarmonica or two, a few nice Solingen blades, perhaps a few Case straights and you're well ahead.
At $22 a straight, I'd be happy to contribute to a group buy if anyone else was interested.

Thanked: 2209Yep. I agree. But,it is, as always, maker, size, embellishments and condition, condition, condition.
