Had to drop someone off yesterday. I had to choose my direction to my next destination. After committing to my course, I was thinking I may have went the longer way. I kept making course corrections and low and behold, an Antique store that I didn't know was there. So I went in and looked around.
There it was, an Ever Ready 1914 for $35. Immediately I said that's way too much. Saw a 3 piece NEW Deluxe set for $30, it was nice except for one badly bent corner tooth, it looked silver and was filthy, had the short handle.
There were several other DE razors, and an Eish type all gold(handle also) Schick for $18.
My eye was on the Ever Ready though.
My daughter found a few books and my wife found a few things. Upon checking out, I asked if the prices were final and the lady said no and asked what I was looking at. I showed her and she called the guy over who's case it was. He dropped the price from $35 to $25. I thought for a few seconds and said thanks and started to walk off. I ended up getting it for $23. Left the other razors.
I have too many excellent razor choices. I cleaned it up and will probably use it today. I'm really starting to (((HATE))) the GEM blade for being so good!
I'll post a few more pictures and shave results later. It had a Pal blade in it.
