    hi Speckey,
    My findings here are the same as yours. Now that a few folks are hunting razors for me things have improved dramatically. I am only a hour's drive from St Paul/Mpls and the collectors are out in droves from there. So I make each visit count for the business owner and myself. I do travel the area some days and stop along the way wherever I am. I do miss a lot to Sum Guy! but I do get enough to keep me busy through the winter. Cheers

    I may have to go out for a weekend drive and look for that odd spot that would have a treasure of straights. Follow the white rabbit.
    Geezer what is has been your experience with finding razors out on the west side of the state?
    If we can corral members maybe a meet-up could work in the middle of the state? Just a thought

    Any of you local guys ever been to the 7 mile fair flea market in Caledonia?
    I may try to make a trip out there this weekend.

    This is going to be the last weekend for the flea markets in this area. If you can beat Sum Guy, you may have a chance.
    Good hunting!

    Man that "sum guy" is making his rounds. I actually chucked when I went in to a store asking about straights and was told "sum guy" came in and bought what we had.
    Must have been Geezer I said to myself.

    I will find that shoe box load with gems in it.

    My Wisconsin SRP member list is now at a count of 83. If any of you want the list just send me a PM. That should be enough to put together a small razor meet.

    Southwestern WI. and IL. together could make a meet if there are members in the Kenosha Area to Host it might get Chicago area and Milwaukee together. I will see if any one responds here first but I may make a new post with a title fitting this idea.

    Goodness gracious! A fair wealth of Cheddar Heads. Randy, is it possible they outnumber us Tundrasotans?
