Thread: Just bought good or no

I just won an auction on eBay for a crown razor Co straight no cracks in scales and looks to just a little rust on blade comes with original box paid $11 for it good or bad thanks in advance for you input

Pics? Link to the auction?

I can't copy pic or know how to get you the link other than tell you to go to eBay but the auction ended when it comes in i will take pics and post are they good razors and if it is in as good of shape as pics was it a good buy

You should be able to find a listing #. If you click that # then cut and past that it should work. If you link the page that says this listing has ended then you end up with the non descript page you're talking about. Sorry I can't be more helpful with where to find the listing #, I always find it difficult to find when I need to find it.

Bout time to go to the beginner's section and learn what you already needed to know.
Learning can be costly!

Ouch. It's going to take quite a bit of work to get that shave ready, more then likely.

But for $11, might be fun to try and restore it, as mentioned, if you want to go that route.

I was looking for an old razor and I got it for 11 bucks didn't hurt my wallet

It will take a little restoring, but once I started doing restores, I really got a better understanding and feeling for everything razor and hone related.
It adds an extra dimension to the experience and makes you more knowledgeable, which are all good things.

Have fun, enjoy and don't be afraid to reach out for help if needed
