If it has rust it can't be mint. People do either inadvertantly or intentionally misconstrue the meaning of tems when describing items on ebay.
Put a '14' on it and watch it fly.... Saw an unassuming Friodur 14 go for ~$500 yesterday!!
It's just so crazy, he might pull it off though!
Idk guys. That razor looks very very nice. I've seen people pay more for less. Maybe we forget, not everyone spends all their money on razors all the time. Some guys just spend all their money on ONE special razor. I can definitely see the allure of this razor. Even if I can't ever afford it.
True he just might! Guess I'm of the mind if I'm gonna drop that kind of money, I would go custom and get exactly what I want done. Then again I probably won't have to worry about having that kind of money to drop...lol!Quote:

I think we've all seen Filarmonicas go for over $1000, so why not? The seller obviously figures someone might pay it..doesn't mean theyre right but it will be interesting to see.
Nice razor, ridiculous price, especially considering the lack of brand recognition. I didn't see any signs of rust in the pics though :shrug:
I was looking at the pics expecting to find some fatal flaw. Nice looking blade!
Value is for someone else to decide;) I enjoyed lookin at it!
if i was loaded with cash i would buy it.
swedish steel razors are some of the nicest i have.
talked to the guy at lenth several times about that razor,he is not a friendly sort.
The Razor market is wierd these days, I popped a filly on the bay today,gone in 20 mins, buy it now,got my price tho:) will do some more tomorrow,strike whilst the Iron is hot:)
Free shipping though. That counts for something.
Guy's,
You're misreading the description. "Mint" isn't part of the description, it's the price!! :rofl2:
All in all, that is a very fine looking razor. Not sure how he figures it to be made of swedish steel, or imported from Germany. Only marks I see indicate "Spain" which opens the door to the possibility that it is a private branded Philly.
If I were a collector instead of a user, I would certainly give this one a second look.
Did you return the razor? I noticed the seller has another one listed and it looks to be the exact same razor.

He says no rust, but one pic still shows rust (looks like he has removed it in the others)
