What I find today
today i go to market. i buy some food for home and when i start walk back seeing small stand with many kind of object. I start looking and find this straight razor made by KROPP. I almost not belive my eyes. I ask owner how much he want for it and he ask 35 dollar in local money. i not want to offend him so i not try to bring him down the price. i dont know if price was too much. It is looking very good. i dont think it shaves many times. later I send it for complete restoration so it will be like new.
Kind regards,
Salomon

Nice catch. If you want to get it polished up like new send manah (Alex) a private message and ask what he will charge. He is also in Israel and is a very good razor restorer.

Is it considered impolite bidding down?
Usually I bid down just out of principle
Unless of course the price is already dirt cheap.

Yeah, I thought the OP might have "offended" the seller by not haggling ...... Originally Posted by Bruno

Even at that, $35.00 ain't half bad for that Kropp.
