W&B on E-Bay: Does this strike you as fishy?
Hello all,
Saw these Wade & Butcher's on E-bay. They look suspiciously like the same razor… Actually, the same picture of the same razor.

That’s a fast turn around!
Regards &c

There's something goofy going on. One is being sold from "utah". One from "pennsylvania". One sold yesterday and the other goes up for auction today. Different sellers but same pictures and text..... Someone's doing something that isn't according to the rules of Hoyle.

Maybe the guy in PA bought it from the other one, got a good deal, then immediately re-listed it, thinking to make a profit? Co-opted the earlier ad.

I reported it to eBay. We'll see if they do anything about it.
I buy so many razors, I did not notice these three auctions I won from the same seller. Needless to say, I have not received any one of the razors.

Notice that the pics were the same in all three

Yeah, methinks something is rotten in the state of... Utah. Or Pennsylvania. Or, more likely, some prefecture of the PRC where they intend to ship you the razors from.
I'd stay away, caution in these things being the better part of valor, even if you do miss out on a W&B.

Actually, it would be something is rotten in Nevada or Pennsylvania. Neither is in Utah.

Actually a pretty common occurrance on Eboy among the less honest amongst us is to swipe peoples fotos and use them in their own auctions. If your lucky you get the item and it just looks different. If your unlucky you get swindled
