    Default Coincidence?? (same razor on ebay.fr and ebay.com)

    Please compare both auctions and tell me if this is about the same razor (except for the blade perhaps?). But even the box has a bump on the same place.... STRANGE! very STRANGE!

    That does look very suspicious. They even have the same smudge on the handle in the same spot near the wedge. it's not the same photo, so it's not like one of them "borrowed" the photo from the other (this bit me once, grrr).

    manyware's got an extremely good rep, so I wonder what's up. Might not hurt to squirt him a message asking him what's up.

    Even stranger, I could swear this razor or it's twin was listed a month or two ago, then disappeared after a few days.

    As mparker said though, manyware's reputation is about as good as they get.

    Quite a price difference! The one in Paris closed at 26.5 Euros. The one here is at $120+ and probably going higher.

    I regret not bidding on the 'Paris' one... the picture doesn't make clear what material the blade is made from... Suppose its Damascus too? What a lucky winner!

    They'll make up the difference in shipping cost from France
