Well I have to personally apologize to the members of the board. Yes the collection is quite lovely, heck I would
want the display case for my collection. I guess I got a little carried away."The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is it's natural manure."

Some nice scales/razor there, the seller would probable have more luck breaking it up, doubt anyone would drop that much coin at once without seeing and examining each razor. I know I would not.

I would break up that collection into half a dozen lots. You can see that they are grouped together in a certain way in the collection box. Those are the groups I would make. Because as you say, as a collector you may not be interested in all of them, and dropping all that money with the worry that you have to be able to sell the ones you don't want...

I'm very much impressed by this collection, I appreciate that seller reduce price. If he make one more move down with the price I probably buy this collection.

Interesting. Maybe you could make him an offer or contact him directly via ebay.
Even if you ignore the collectability as well as the condition of the blades, at 400$ per set of scales that is a bargain.
If you don't believe me, ask someone with experience in custom high end scales (like Robert Williams) how much he would ask for a pair of MOP scales, or engraved bone, or sterling silver, or scrimshaw work...
My bet is that for some of those scales, 400 will not even be close to the price for having such scales made.Til shade is gone, til water is gone, Into the shadow with teeth bared, screaming defiance with the last breath.
