Thread: 7th National Shaving Collectibles Meeting

I really believe that we actually are the responsible parties for the pricing of good vintage shaving gear going up. It has been doing this for 10 years based on our increasing population and demand or appetite for the holy grails of straight razor shaving.

I have been to this get together for the past couple years, although I will probably not be able to make it this year. This gathering is a great one and the people there are most knowledgeable. Jerry and all the guys are strong advocates of wet shaving and if you get the chance to attend, you will not regret it.

Have fun,

Lynn

Then we bid against each other also.

Will you have some gear for sale their. I may be inclined to make the drive and take a long weekend with the warden. Our youngest is off to college this year so we have an opportunity (empty nest) to do some travel.

Yes for the most part we are bidding against each other.

I have been colecting for about 20 or so years, Off and on. Before ebay. Antique store was all that there was. Prices were about where they are now maybe a little less. When ebay started. The antique dealers were dropping their prices. Now its easy to find razors they said.
