Thread: Modified Gold Dollar

radaddict;

First, only a person intimately familiar with that album would have made that connection, I think you should change the title under your name to Cheap Trick fan, announcing to the world that you've been found out.

Second, sorry about the crappy quality but I can only do a quick job in photoshop while I'm at work. (yea, I know where all the flaws are, I said "crappy quality" didn't I)

So this will have to do for now...

Flaws?!? Looks great and if there are flaws, well, that's just poetry since the razor has flaws. As for being a Cheap Trick fan, I am not. However, I had a neighbor (rather cute I must say) that played the live version of I Want You to Want Me incessantly 30 years ago. I just remember seeing the lead guitarist with a checkerboard Flying V guitar. So, I'm just guilty of having the hots for my cute neighbor. Good times! Good times!!

It's sort of like Pokemon: you gotta collect them all!

There's the "standard" 74, available everywhere.

The 208 "Cheap Trick"

The 200 "Class Act"

The 300 "Blue Swirl"

The unique, conversation starter "Golden Monkey"




And of course, the ever mecurical, and coveted , 800!

Eventually I'm going to get around to getting on (likely the cheap trick edition), but right now I am saving up for a fancy NOS Revisor, so it will have to wait. Eventually...

Took about 2 weeks for this to arrive. I see a few flaws but I think it will be good shaver. Worth $14 +free shipping easily. Two more in route. (By the way the Benchmade is from China as well.)

Matt my 66 has an over grind on the the tang. It honed right up and is a good shaver. It has a ring when the blade is touched so it must be heat treated correctly. Do not concentrate on the minor flaws and you will be very happy with the razor.

OK I wanted to post this hoping to clarify some things and that we all have as much info as possible. I'm also hoping that this will prevent at least some of the emails from lurkers and members, of asking the same questions over and over.
Huge thanks to Shangers for his info, that he got by calling the factory. Anyway, here's the reply I got for an inquiry I sent a while back:

Hi Rudy,

Many thanks of you email,and sorry my late reply.

1.The different is in material and arts and crafts.Model 200,300 and 800 are made with Stainless Steel.Others are made with alloy steel.
2.We accept the payment way as T/T or L/C.
3.The model 200# is approximate as 800#.

Thanks & waitting your reply.

Best Regards,
Nancy Ye

If anyone knows what T/T and L/C forms of payment are, post it here to prevent even more emails.
Anyway, at this point I'll leave the communications to the actual group buyers.

Rudy

I think this Mr.Parko has been busy lately - I have one of each on the way to try as well that I bought from him about 2 weeks ago. This thread could turn into it's own category here if this keeps up and if there's resounding approval of them.
