Thread: B/S/T section experiencing a recession?

Is the B/S/T section experiencing a recession...haha...i'm noticing more razors are not being sold, but it may just be an accident.

Maybe people are waiting until the dust is settled on the Maestro buy before spending more cash!

I would be selling more, but I have too many razors to finish for others right now, so it's hard to concentrate on my own.

Ever since i've been here the BST seems to be going up and up.

Yeah, I know what you mean, it took almost 24 hours to sell one. Well, I did sell one in 4 minutes the day before. Oh wait, I sold razor yesterday. Oops, I think I've got a buyer for another one. No, wait, I bought one on Monday and sold one Tuesday. Or was it I sold two Sunday and honed another last night?

Haha you're hilarious

Is this something like, "Yes, we have no bananas today"?

Well I think alot of the razors are not restored or shave ready and alot are more expensive. I am swamped and doing my best to keep up which is why I have not sold any on there for some time. I hope to again at some point but i also have to restore a blade or two for me too. We will see what happens. As for prices going up which is what I think Golem said... ebay has been getting more and more expensive and my level of work per blade is going up and up as I try to make them more and more perfect. If the blade cost more and we are putting out better stuff then I expect prices to go up but there are more and more cheap blades too.

My Wapi run has taken a huge chunk of the newbies also...
They are usually a steady source of buyers for the less expensive starter razors...
once I stop taking any more orders for those, you'll probably see it jump back up.
But for now $40 shave ready Wapis will probably cause some price reduction, and slow downs in B/S/T for the lower end starters...
and the Mid range and higher are probably stalled because we are waiting to see what happens with the Maestro group buy... like Philadelph said.
