No disrespect meant but what yer saying needs proof, something more than an un-substantiated e-bay seller saying these things....

You are absolutely right! Long after he sold his razors on eBay I contacted him and he made up this story. I was such a fool. Your right! A Wonderedge is worth $1000 maybe more because it is made of metal crossed from the 11" turret of the Shornhorst and a crashed alien spacecraft from area 51. Never mind me. Hell, I make this stuff up on a daily basis just to entertain my pet birds. This is exactly why I stopped trying to help people on the forums. Sooner or later - in this case sooner - someone is going to pop up and tell you that you are full of crap.

John,

I understand your frustration and have had a mild case of it directed to me at one time. I hope this doesn't stop you from assisting us along our journey with straight razors. I am always interested in reading what others have to offer and make my own decisions on what to believe and what to ignore as most of us here can do. Some of us just have a bad day for what ever reason and come across wrong. I do remember the thread Glen was referring to and probably would have addressed the topic in a different manor, probably due to my many years of training in being politically correct in a big corporation. Sometime I think it is a curse, other times I can tell people to go to hell in a way that they think they will enjoy the trip.

Hope you stick around.

Take it easy John. Noone is saying you are full of ****.
Your explanation could be right or wrong. I don't know. But it is based on several levels of 'he said...' so it is not illogical that people want to find out the details before deciding.

It is interesting to see that our censor program turns Bruno's **** to **** but leaves Johns' crap intact! I'll have to remember that the next time I want to emphasize a point with a little old fashioned profanity.

But on a serious note, this forum is great about people disagreeing forcefully with no one being banned or assessed a point penalty or receiving pile on slams from moderator worshippers, so I do hope John keeps speaking his mind and whoever disagrees with him keeps on disagreeing. There is a lot of knowledge here so very little risk of anyone being sent in the wrong direction, so everyone should speak their mind as they always do and shrug if someone chops them down.
