English Red Tip Rocket

I´ve both: the british Red Tip Super-Speed and the Red Tip Rocket. I´m on work, but I can make pictures later.
Ciao, Antoine..
As Herr Mr-Razor can verify, they do indeed exist. I just received a lot of three rockets today and although they have still not yet been cleaned, you can see the razor in the center is an English Red Tip Rocket.
The other two are a German Parat (I think.. it's Brit Pat 694093) on the left and a #58 on the right.
I wonder why they so rarely come up on the BST or eBay?

Ya, the Red Tip Rocket is pretty slick. I believe the Blue Tip Rocket is more rare, though it probably is too mild to shave with often.
I'd still rather have the Essor.
No one will respond to my WTB either, as no one actually has one!

Whew, that Essor is sexy.
I've been searching for one of these for a while with no luck. I did manage to get the line up of the others with doubles which I use as daily shavers
but no colored tip rockets

There's a cased and allegedly unused Blue-Tip Rocket on eBay right now (BIN, so not a TOS violation)..
The seller has since changed the price.. I will not offer an opinion on the new price, as I really have no idea how much it could be worth
The Blue-Tips seem to pop up every once in awhile..

..by the way.. anybody know if it's possible to polish Rocket or Superspeed Nickel back to the bright and shiny finish like the one in Achim's post? My Rocket is about as bright as a.. as something that's not very bright.

One came up in a batch of 10 razors last week, the batch went for over $200.
The guy selling that blue tip has a bunch of really attractive razors, all on a buy it now. (not me, BTW)
