Good Day At The Antique Fair

[MichiganRob]

So my wife and I went to an antique show at a county fairground today. They had over 400 vendors so my hopes were pretty high that I would find some gear. I've been hoping to find some vintage Williams, ala Hoosier Trooper, but no luck. I did find a couple of good items, and one awesome find. Well, I didn't, but my wife found it for me. Here's some phone pics (not the greatest I know) after I gave each of them a soak and toothbrush scrub with dish soap:

First up a cased Gem SE that I paid $10 for:




Next a Gillette Slim Adjustable, also paid $10 for it:




Lastly, a Gillette Sheraton, which my wife paid, get this......$2. No lie, two whole dollars.

I hope you can sleep tonite- after stealing that Sheraton. If not- send it to me- I will sleep just fine!

In the words of Napoleon Dynamite, "LUCKY!". I'd love to find a Slim for that price.

Wow! Congrats!

 

[Copierguy]

Hope you are not the jealous type, cause I would like to ask your wife to go shopping for razors.

 

[Haggises]

I'll give your wife 3, no! 4 dollars for that Sheraton. I'll even cover shipping.
Deal?

 

[Domminigan]

Excellent deals all!

 

[ERVARGASNY]

You didn't get written consent to pick my area, sir. send 'em over and I shall look the other way (this time)

Excellent day, for sure! I just scored a great condition Schick injector G8 for $5, and two slim adjustables for $25 including shipping. Not as good a deal as you, but I'm happy with them. Oh I also got an Enders with three boxes of new blades and original case for $15.

Nice finds Rob, especially the cased 1912, but no Williams, that's kind of a bummer....

You lucky.... ;-)
There far less chance to find nice old razors in Sweden under similar circumstances. Gratulations. Got to be nice to buy a Sheraton for only 2 bucks! Close to get one for free.
