Cheers Phrank,
Yes was the one that ended last night (midday for me downunder). Think I overpaid, but I believe these don't come up so often so I paid what I had to and am happy with the purchase as long as it cleans up ok.

Thanks Phrank.
Before buying, I thought about what I would want in a collection, and decided Id rather have a handful of unusual / less common razors rather than heaps of more common razors (I know the FBU I got is quite common). Now just need a pristine 7 day set lol... but realistically id like a gentlemans razor, and although not uncommon, Id like a pristine bow razor next to an arrow razor.
Do you know much about the Anchor razors? ie age, how common etc
What are the most collectable W&B's?
I agree, I woulda bid it up more had I not just bought like 60 SR this week...lol. I want an anchor baaaaad. Let us know the blade width when it arrives!
Thanks, I feel a little less bad about how much I spent that I really shouldnt have lol. Im really trying to restrict my budget, hence the need to limit it to a select few razors for my rotation rather than one of everything.
My butcher collection so far
We can start with my disastrous 9/8 FBU that taught me that hand tools are better than power tools!!!!! :(
