Forgot to mention both razors are spotless and shave ready. Im unable to get the pictures of them
Sorry we don't discuss value on the open forums.
Usual advice is to check completed listings on eBay for similar razors.
Thanks for the reply. I wasnt looking for a value on the was asking if it was a fair price to pay for them and if they were a good razor
Asking if it a fair price is sort of the same thing....Quote:

I did see a thread about Russian razors though and think I saw that name.
If you do a search for members by location and use Moscow as the location it was a member there talking about them
once you find a likely member, tap on their name/avatar and then tap on recent forum posts.
Thanks iv searched the R. Heixise and the only one thats coming up is the 1 that's close to me its on ebay to but it seems to be the only 1 on there.
Madpaddy, I caught some of your earlier posts . Are you still trying to find a quality razor to start out with or am I misunderstanding?

It is pretty hit and miss, also knowing what is reasonable and unreasonable to pay for a razor is very subjective. What may be worth a fair bit of $ to me is not necessarily going to be worth coin to you, it is a good idea to find out what various ones are going for as well as which regular vendors are trustworthy and ease into it. Have a look at this post to see what I mean about a fairly rare razor that was worth some coin to a purchasor:

P.S. I thought that was Blackbeards flag, nice one.
