At one point (recently) I was down to only 2 straight razors. Then I bought a very nice 6/8 Bismarck Registered at an antique store because I liked the size and condition of the blade. I followed that up with another 15 razor purchases in the following 10 days. The main reason for purchasing them was I liked the overall quality of the selections after searching through several hundred at this source and the shop keeper sold me all 15 for under $15.00 a piece. I felt that if I decided to sell any of them in the future, it was likely that I wouldn't lose a dime because of how reasonably I purchased them in the first place.
