Why not on the other hand make mention of the razors currently available that are brand new, made by reputable manufacturers, sold by reputable vendors AND are shave ready?? Yes, contrary to popular belief, such goods are out there and priced from about $77.00 (Dovo Best) to $119 (Boker King Kutter) and all over the place from there. We are also talking IN STOCK with free or modest shipping charges.
When the monetary output is essentially the same for either, what's the downside of "new" over "used"??
