    Y'know I think the guy doesn't expect to sell that Puma for $1200. His deal is that he knows a fair amount of people use "highest price" for their search preferences. So he is getting a lot of exposure with the high priced one and then guys hit "see seller's other items". Then there are the razor forums where he knows guys will discuss the crazy price and again check out his other razors. Crazy like a fox. Nice Puma you got there nycexit2.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    Come to think of it, he also uses all kinds of irrelevant, yet somehow attractive "Japanese-y" words (Katana, Ninja, Samurai).

    Marketing genius?

    Nice razor. I don't think I've had anything but great shaves from a Puma.
