AArrrgghhhhh%^$#$&(&)(*
I'm venting. I didn't check the classifieds this morning and just noticed that there were 2 (count 'em - TWO) 1/4 ground Wackers listed this morning - one Spanish and one French point - I'd have eased out of a staff meeting with the Whitehouse to jump online to buy both of them!!! So did I get them? NOOOOO - I'll bet someone jumped in and grabbed those beauties about 4 seconds after they were listed! You are one very observant and lucky guy! My heartfelt congratulations to you!
Grrrrrrrr..... I need to figure out how to hook up my Blackberry to alert me to any new razor posts in the classifieds with an electrical shock. I hate the damned thing but if it alerted me to just one beauty like those it would make me appreciate it more.
OK I feel better - thank you for those 3 minutes of your life that you'll never get back. :-)

Seemed to me to be a darn good deal. I saw them too late too. Too broke to buy 'em if I'd of gotten there in time though. Originally Posted by John Crowley

Same here. Kinda glad I didn't see 'em, though. Saving my proprietary funds for something special that might be becoming available over the next month or so. Originally Posted by JimmyHAD

Someone got a great deal. No, I didn't see them until it was too late.

Ichinichi value is in the eye of the beholder my brother! I paid about that for an almost exact copy of one of those. I know they can be had for much more at certain sites so anything this side of $200 is not bad! But mainly, I like the look and the shaves I get from them so it just comes down to whether or not someone likes that blade and is willing to pay the asking price. Not silly at all. ..but I suspect you're just joking.
