I went into an antique shop today in Vancouver - and the dealer had about 8 straight razors. One red imp - cracked scales, tarnished to hell and gone, a Queen Cutter (WH Morley), plus a TOTALLY rust covered (it looked like an old tailpipe) Boker - price: $60 for the rusted Boker, $80 for the red imp, and $100 for the Queen Cutter. I LITERALLY laughed out loud.

I told him that those are $20 to $30 MAX on-line. He popped the gum in his mouth and said "no way..."

I walked out shaking my head.

Another shop had three - an old Wade and Butcher plus a couple of others - $55 each - because the scales were "french ivory" - which I translate as "yellow celluloid"


Are these guys high??? or what????
