The classifieds is one of the most recommend places to buy as they are members and hav a reputation to uphold. If unsure still just ask we are always willing to help. Ed

While 99.9% of transactions through the SRP classifieds have been satisfactory to buyer and seller I must point out that SRP is providing the convenience for our members but doesn't guarantee outcomes or mediate between buyers or sellers. Always pay with PayPal "goods" and their buyer protection policy is the mediator.
Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

Thanked: 433Very safe, this is a community unlike ebay or somewhere else. The vast majority of sellers on here take their reputations very seriously and shave ready here means shave ready. I've bought and sold many on here with zero issues.
This is probably one of the safest place to buy a used razor for a newcomer

Thanked: 284Yes the classifieds here is a fantastic setup to buy and sell straights from honest people.
Nothing but good things to say about the classifieds. If you have questions about a particular razor just ask the seller.I love living in the past...

Thanked: 4In my short time on here, and in the few encounters I've had with other members, I can honestly say that communication, speed, courtesy are all better than on any other site that I'm a member of. It still amazes me how helpful everyone on here is...

I have bought 3 razors from the classifieds and have high praise for the sellers I have dealt with
You can buy from the sellers here and be certain they are going to stand by their product
Ask questions if you are not sure about something
Enjoy the rideRickyB

Thanked: 0Thanks everybody for the information! But just so I'm clear any forum can say they take reputation seriously. Just saying I have heard that tons of times.

Thanked: 3224IIRC I have bought about 3 razors through the classifieds here and have been satisfied with the transactions. With that and the previous posts I think it is safe to say in answer to your original question that it is "generally" safe to buy from the classifieds but like everything in life there are no guarantees.
