It is all about, condition.

Buy razors in the best condition, you can afford.

You can get some good deals in lots, but you must be careful and look at the photos carefully. No rust, no chips, no pits, no broken scales. Basically, nothing that will not clean up with just steel wool and metal polish, to start off.

Usually in lots you will be buying some clunkers… and maybe some good ones.

Generally, if the photos are not good, there may be a reason.

As said, there are some good razors in the lot, but I would not buy them.

If you are shopping on line, and see something interesting, you can PM me and I will, try to advise you, so you don’t get in to trouble with evaluation and end up with some shavers.

Local antique swapmeets and antique stores are good places to look.
