    if you are just looking for a great shaver then ask question directly from the seller. I am sure most of the seller will tell you what kinda shaver blade is.
    Price of the blade is mostly depends not just quality +condition.
    if you don't care 1 of them then you can buy very nice quality blade a lot cheaper price.
    Please don't buy anything before asking question from seller.
    usually they all easy accessible.
    hope this helps

    My understanding is that the condition should refer to the cosmetic aspects of the razor, i.e. tarnish, pitting, not to the edge. A razor that is listed as shave-ready should have as good of an edge as possible. Of course, then come the subjective factors - how good at honing the person who honed it is, how good of an edge the razor can take (you already had that experience, as Alan can extract the best edge from a razor), how much experience the seller has when evaluating the edge and telling you where it stands, what do they mean by the various grading categories....

    So, as you see, picking a seller you trust is far more important than what the actual advertisement says.

    That is it in a nutshell.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    Or as we say in the watch business, buy the seller then the watch. Same here.
