Were the cops on your tail as you drove back home? Because I think you stole at least half of them...

I don't know about 'very valuable', but I'll cover all your expenses if you just send the Jackson to its proper home, namely mine.

Well I don't know about their exact value but I would say most antique places or the bay would fetch at LEAST 3 times as much as you paid for that lot of razors... Originally Posted by straightshooter007

Have fun restoring the whole set!
