    the bidders could be collectors and not straight shavers is one guess.

    I think there are three possible reasons people are bidding on it:

    1. It's a razor

    2. It's on eBay

    3. Both

    Reason: Grind out a few of the chips and put it back on eBay and double your money.
    That's why!

    It appears we have heard from an actual bidder how these kinds of purchases are really justified! That line may work on your wife, Johnus, but we know you are just suffering from RAD

    It's exactly what I told to my wife when I purchased every razor - I will just clean, hone and then sold them
