Likewise here. When I looked at it, all I see is a laser engraving on a razor that just looks good & nothing else. The scales look nice if they are streaked horn which is what they appear to be but that might be to throw the seller off.

Thanks for the advice. I have emailed him and told him that I don't want the Windsor..

I copied the item number & entered it in the US eBay & it shows it would be $61.03 usd plus &8.28 usd shipping. It's a damn shame that there are no reviews on it or no other stampings or markings like the steel used. It might be some inferior metal in nice looking scales or it might shave like a dream but in all reality, red flags keep coming up for me. Good luck in what you choose. There's nothing wrong with some old Sheffield steel or even German, French, Swedish & more.

It very much looks like the Gold Dollar 208. I'd avoid it at that price.
