Thread: Razor Antiquing

Over the weekend I headed over to a local antique shop to see if I could find any straight razors at a reasonable price. Being new to this I didn't know what to look for. I found an antique shop that had a good collection of them but was imidiatley discouraged by the price all of them were no less than $120.00 and for that price i could just buy a new one. I found this to be ridiculous because they were all pretty old and dull some even rusted. After going through eBay I found many that we're anywhere from 20 to 60 but as with anything else in eBay you don't know what you bought until you have it in your hands. Do you guys trust ebay with purchasing razors to recondition? What is an alright price to pay for a vintage razor?
