    Kicking myself for not grabbing a "Celebrated" straight I saw yesterday. No chips on the blade or scales, everything straight and limited rust... Can't believe I didn't put the $20 asking price down and walked away happy...

    No worries, I usually offer less then asking at fleas and they usually bite, walking away is fine to, there plenty of razors out there.

    maybe this is WHY the razor saw minimal use in previous years!

    I very seldom pay the asking price unless it is something I really want.
