Thread: What's this Double Duck worth?

My saying I wouldn't give ten bucks reflected the shortened blade more than anything else. Yes , I know you can still shave with a shortened blade ...; but there are too many fish in the sea for me to settle for less than I want. The longer I've been messing with the sport, the more discriminating I've become.

Yep, everyone's got the line that they draw, no doubt about that. I, too, am just making blanket statements here as the pics aren't detailed enough to make a judgement. But you're right, I avoid those things too. After I had a few more razors I realized that there are, indeed, plenty of fish in the sea and a razor has to be at the right price (i.e. pretty darn cheap) for me to deal with any hassles it might come with.

But maybe I just have a soft spot in my heart for the uggos out there... Only when it comes to razors though!

I meant acquiring things while weighing their costs and potential hassles!! Geez guys, am I going to have to post a pic of my fiancee on here or what??

OK all. Here is a Mod warning. We don't discuss razor prices on this forum for a reason. I am closing this thread for a while since some of you feel a need to find a way to get prices posted in this thread. If this continues I will start deleting posts. Please respect our policy of not posting razor values even in you are doing so in a round about way.
