I'm rapidly turning to a total shade of green! Great haul!!!
Wow, you may as well have stolen them!
Someone (the shop) obviously doesn't know the market.
;)
Wow, from all of the comments it looks like i got a great deal! I saw a few other blades but they were excessively priced. The only one i really wanted was a Red Imp #132. It was decent but they wanted $60 which i thought was to much for its condition.
Hopefully i'll be able to get all of these blades cleaned up and shave ready. I really like the Sterling and its in great shape. I also like the Swedish blade, but it looks like it'll take some time.
In the attachment are some better pictures of the razors and some of the box. I have already taken the box apart and started sanding it. I have to finish removing some glue residue and final sand it. Not sure how i'm going to finish it. I'm not sure what kind of wood it is either. Any advice??? Also, can anyone tell me a better way to lap a swaty? I've been using a glass plate with 400grit 3M Imperial paper. I may be finished in about another decade.
Thanks for all of the comments so far.

If you consider selling the box then PM me ;)
Great find hope I can find a deal like that again. The best I did was get a a 7 day set of Wilkinson of Pall Mall , bone handled, and in the orignal case, great shape hardley used for $40.00 What a steal:D
But there was alot of time spent searching for somthing like this.
Any more great finds?
