The first and second guy both respond, they'll take it. Who gets the razor? The first to commit? The first to ask the question? Its a complicated subject. Someone's going to be left out.
Normally, the first stating that he is interested has the priority, even if he has a question, because he stated it first. And so on and so forth in line order. What you do as a seller - or at least as I did - was to write all the people giving them order number and stating clearly that X is first but has a question, Y is second but has a question and Z is third but want it... If X is happy with the answer, the razor is his; if not, it goes to Y, and if not to Z... it was the way the BST forum was working... and I think it is a good way to let people ask questions, wait for answers (sometime the seller cannot also answer right away) and decide... I think this is why our BST forum are different form a shopping mall.
