Would hate to see it disappear in transit only to have the customs inspector show up with a baby smooth face from his last shave, and a big grin on his face.

I don't know Doug, but in the last months, I've started to conclude if Doug is bidding, 1) it's probably a worthy razor; 2) if I really want it, it won't end up a bargain :lol: He seems to have good taste and deep pockets and an insatiable affection for razors

Yep, Doug needs the 12 step program bad. I seems to have almost unlimited funds for his hobby, but I have seen him also win some real clunkers. But like they say, different strokes for different folks.
This German guys says he has lots of different razors. I tried to get him to send some photos and a list of some of the makes and models, but he says he is very busy this week, but will try to get something out in the following weeks.
