    Default I might be Healed

    I really don't know for sure but i keep watching eBay and not bidding on anything. Have i out lived my RAD or have I just gotten to picky. I know i'm down to about 10-15 razors i use most often and just look at the others. Unlike what B B King sang (the thrill is gone) i still enjoy looking but very happy with what i have so far. Before you say it i am talking about razors. Or is this the time of year that the nicer blades are hiding.

    The RAD is probably just in remission....There is no known cure..

    You are not cured. The prices are too high.

    It's a permanent affliction with no known cure. However it waxes and wanes. You're just at a low point.

    Sadly, there is no cure. While waiting for its reoccurrence, you may be able to prolong remission by repeating this mantra while shaving: The true key to happiness is not having every razor you want, but wanting every razor you have. I have used this to successfully prolong remission for up to a month.

    Yeah, I thought I was cured. In the last three weeks I bought 4 razors.

    Haven't bought a razor this month... Of course, I did buy three Simpson Manchurian Badger brushes in the last week...

    There is not much that I have to have right now. As a result my bids are all low and nothing seems to be getting me very excited either. I keep looking but I am still looking and not buying much. Right now I have very restricted internet and a heavy homework load and that helps too. When I saw who the post was by I thought you were going to tell us you had finished your physio and had never felt better. I still hope it's true even if it was not the post I was hoping to see.

    Roger I think we have been at this about the same time, I am that way now. I never really got into Ebay and fixing , but I was always on the hunt for a better custom, and sone of the nicer razors. Now I really am selective before I even look at one. It really has to be special now, either a NOS that I really want , or another custom that has features I've learned to like, but I really haven't been looking anymore. I,m very happy with what I have. By the way get better , it's riding season. Tc
