    +1 No book in or out of print has accurate market prices on vintage razors. Same with pocket knives. They are interesting for general info on the companies and various models they made but ebay completed items is far more revealing as to what things are bringing in the real world.

    It does give you an understanding though as to why some are priced as they are and what to look for. Moreover it tells you how to figure stuff out that would take a bit of posting to get to - like how to tell what material is what and where the razor comes from.

    Pricing - the book helps. Helping you value things on your own - priceless. Understanding hysteria on the Bay... total loss LOL .

    Yeah actually - I saw that. Try ebay. It'll be cheaper there I think. That's where I got mine.

    Mine is in good shape. If you still want it after all the debate here , and if you can't get a good price on one out there in the wilds, PM me and I'll sell you mine for a fair price.

    David, I realize your heart is in the right place here and I hate to be a nit picker and bring up such pedestrian stuff as SRP rules ..... but in the future please make any offers through our PM system.

    It's not pedestrian Jimmy - thanks for the heads up.

    I am merely in my own world today. Sorry about that Jimmy. Feel free to delete that for me!
