What's new

A mother's day Antique fair find..

Went there at a more sane time around 6:30 and scored the following: A NM cased Fatboy, Beautiful gold tech nearly flawless, two solid user grade Red Tips, a regular SS, Super speed, and embarassingly an open comb hospitol razor:blushing: (I apologise for even showing that one. Really. That's an embarassment to this site)
One vendor even had nos blades that I couldn't help but buy them. Sadly this same vendor had drilled into a board a heavy red tip case using it as a "tutorial" board along with other razors! I so badly wanted that. I tried to pick it up & the whole board came up! lol. (The Super adjustable was not part of the find as that was in an earlier thread.) that Old Spice mug I was excited about as it will fill the new TFS Rosse one kilo brick that I'm spliting with another member. $2! Woot. Can't beat that.

Nothing like Mother's Day finds.............especially when you find a lil' somethin' for you.
Great haul. Those Fatboys seem to love you! They find you.
 
Nice haul man. I'm jealous. I went on a major tour of many cities on Saturday and came up empty except for a minty Hoffritz case. First time I've ever been razor-skunked on an outing.

Good to see there are still fish out there to be caught!
 
very nice. if i wasnt working today i would have been out hunting as well. funny that hunting has turned into my past time. on my time off im usually hunting for razors. its weird how much i involve myself in this hobby.
 
Thanks guys It's been a phenomenal month. Just a month or two ago I couldn't shake a hundred for a rusty tech!

Dude - I know EXACTLY how you feel - It's a bizarre thing. 6 Months ago I would have thought them nuts if someone had suggested I would become engrossed with "razors and shaving paraphernalia" - It's kind of surreal actually.

That said, I can't remember when I have had this much fun for what is a pretty low-cost hobby. Worth every penny anyways.

I know how you feel. Couple months ago I logged some miles & mostly time and was coming up dry. Buzzards were sitting on the razor wire you know. I couldn't find a thing.
