Unknown razor maker- fishy?
So I was searching on eBay, and in a roundabout way, this razor came up-

I thought it looked great, and a lot like some of the customs on this forum, it's 9/8ths, stylish, etc. However there is no maker's mark so I decided to msg the seller to ask if he was on SRP to find out a bit more, and got a response that he wasn't a member here and that "the finish was coming off the razor" (not even sure what that means, it's steel...) and therefore he couldn't sell it to me. 5 minutes later he sent me another msg offering the same razor, but for half the original price (which was roughly in the ballpark of other customs i have purchased from some of the usual suspects around here, so that didn't immediately throw a red flag). Opinions? Should I walk away from this one? The razor LOOKS legit, but everything else smells a bit odd to me.
