I agree with the others that the classifieds are your best bet. Due to my lousy income as a college student I've only acquired 3 razors so far, 2 of which came from the classifieds. Neither of them were more than $60 and I love them both dearly.

Honestly I say go with kenrup. I purchased a set from him starting out and it had the biggest bang-for-buck. The Double Arrow razor (from the set) is my favorite and most trusted fall-back razor when I NEED to have a great looking shave for an event. I've nicked the strop quite a bit while figuring out my technique, but it's held up quite admirably.

Funny thing, the strop should make a interesting conversation piece. Visiting relatives thought I was using it for some kind of BDSM act in my bathroom.
