Gillette 1958 TV Special Superspeed confirmation and query

[Abz88]

Just took receipt of a Gillette 1958 TV Special purchased from Ebay. It was described as a Superspeed TV Special Rhodium Plated. Everything adds up to it being a TV Special (it has the correct handle knurling), however, on receipt I've realised its made in USA (I should have spotted this in the pictures but didn't think to double check, which was stupid of me) which would mean its not in fact Rhodium plated unless it was re-plated?

It doesn't look like its been re-plated and there is no difference in the handle and head when I take a picture with a flash (whereas I believe rhodium should shine brighter under the flash?)

Am I right in thinking that this appears to be a standard USA made 1958 TV Special and it not in fact Rhodium plated?

Nice score but you're right and it's a seller's error. Hopefully he/she will be agreeable on the partial refund.

Thought so, yes hopefully they agree to a partial refund to avoid the hassle or returning and relisting it.

Very good partial refund given by the seller (more than I expected would be offered), meaning I ended up with a good price for a TV Special. Thank you for confirming my suspicion on the rhodium!
