    I only went to the three in the row in guildford, Ill have to have a look at the other two.

    I also went to 3 in e|East Fremantle, the one on Canning hwy and the one in Mt Lawley. After getting no where i started phoning around and still got no where.

    The guildford store to the left (Jones or something), the two little ladies in there need some serious HRT, they are so damn rude!

    Yeah even amongst the other dealers Jonesy has a reputation, he also has the rubbish solar instal.and I think the three I mentioned you missed. Good luck on your quest, though I will be back from Karratha on Wednesday, so I would get there quick if I were you....

    There is one in Kelmscott also. Had a w&b with badly worn toe for 60. My sister was big into antiques and told me of shops but all over priced or no stock. Apparently people collect them to put on a shelf and never use them.whod a figured. Oh and they pay a reasonable price too cos there antique. Ha idiots. I use the bay as can get good razors for cheap prices and no running around for nothing. There ajs in Perth has trans ark 6x2 for 66.

    I stopped making my regular trips into the antique store I sourced a few nice razors at when I realised I was the reason they were hiking up the prices with the excuse made that "they have become quite popular recently you know!" I haven't been there for a year or more now...So cop that you pair of old biddies that run the place. I hope you hair turns blue!

    Isn't that just supply and demand, we are a capitalist country after all.

    Sounds like somebody needs to flood the market over there. How many straights will fit in a suit case ? Hones will be heavy but if we spread them out we can get a few over there. hmmm how much does it cost to get a container down there ? I know it's only about 3,ooo US to the middle east. I have noticed the Ducks are fetching a high price in your market.

    I drove through Guildford yesterday, and the 3 together are Jones of Guildford (that one is a bit like au.tie wainrights from last of the summer wine), basic elements studio, and the old markets (or something similar), then there is the one the other side of the king and I (yummy food), and also round the back of the old markets. The one near the rose and crown isn't there anymore from what I could see.
