    Default 58 razors + 2 diamond rings etc starting bid 1500 on ebay!

    Not sure if anyone is interested but this is newly posted. The price is high but looks like you might get a few gems in there (rings included!)

    IMHO , he should have started the bidding at $9.99 , probably would have started a bidding frenzy . As for the rings , maybe they are what he says they are , maybe not . Sale is final , no return . I think I'll pass . I wish him the best of luck .

    Works out to less than $30 a razor. The rings are probably worth more than the opening bid. I don't know this guy but thought it was a pretty interesting auction!

    I was looking at his new listing and remembered it previously sold for $1725

    **Maybe the buyer made a mistake or maybe the buyer was a friend trying to up the price, who knows ???

    Interesting bid history on that failed auction.

    When you consider that the rings could be cheap costume jewelry, and several of the razors appear to be junk, the per unit price isn't so attractive.

    People selling lots should never expect retail per unit anyway.

    Unless they offer free donuts.

    Maybe Audrey no longer loves Joe... (and is spitefully selling his collection)

    The rings are just added to the auction because when you received the package and SWMBO freaks out on you, you give her the two rings and all of a sudden everybody is happy!

    Yeah, with most razors junk and even the 'good' ones in the condition you can see on the pictures I doubt it'll sell at this price point. And indeed the bidding history on the previous listing is not too encouraging.
