    It's amazing that someone would buy it.

    You got me.

    But what none of you know is that razor was used by Josef Stalin and he wasn't so hot at straight shaving and the daily experience was why he was driven crazy and killed all those folks.

    I have seen a couple of razors at antique shops with these crackhead prices too. They get pissy when they tell you the price and you laugh like they told you the funniest joke ever.

    I made an fair offer on one and the guy said "I don't want to lose money on it." Maybe you are in the wrong business, hoss.
    One time, in band camp, I shaved with a Gold Dollar razor.

    Been there myself. I like to revisit them once a month or so. My wife has a tendency to announce "hey, they still have that razor for sale". Makes me grin ear to ear.
