Thank you very much, my dear friend!PM sent. Hope you haven't bought it quite yet.
Thank you for your answer, my friend.With Tanuki on the rules, plus he's not asking it's value - he's asking if it's a good deal. There is a subtle difference. Or it's possible I'm being too Belgian about this. We are rule breakers after all
That's beyond sad.
Regarding the oc Tech, I think I've seen maybe one for sale in Europe over the past two years. Given the fact that it's pretty hard to get I would feel 55 dollars isn't too bad a price. I dont know how it shaves, ofcourse. If it's shave is similar to a modern Tech design (as suggested by Ivan) then it might not be worth it. But YMMV ofcourse and I do love a good Tech.
That is exactly the question, my friend.This ^^^
Never seen one, so apparently it is rare. I'd love to own one.
The question (to the OP) is:
What is it worth to you?
Hahaha!I would buy it at that price, but I have bought a lot of razors that I probably shouldn't have bought, so I'm not sure I'm the kind of person you should be asking for advice.
This curiosity is the thing that attracts me the most, my dear friend!Nice find (ever more so if it's a legit copy).
I've a Tech which sports one of said unstamped SB baseplates, too. I've no clue if the plateis a fake one (likely) or not. But the shaves with it are just as fine as with any other SB Tech, so there's no need to question the tool...
I'd love to own an OC Tech, but as @Shaun asleep correctly stated, they are indanely rare on the European side of the pond.
Let us know how she shaves (if you decide to pull the trigger) @Beto Salatini ...
Hahahaha!The story of my life.
Wow!!!!Here is a cheap copy........and has both closed and open combs.....for $9
Thank you, my friend!And here is a somewhat similar , BUT bar base.....
Not a copy. The Lord with the plastic open comb plate has a huge gap. Very aggressive.Here is a cheap copy........and has both closed and open combs.....for $9
Yes, they have made them also with the Gillette caps, not only Nacet and Minora. Mostly for the French colonies, as these are hard to find even in France. Here Did Gillette Techs come in an open comb version? - https://www.badgerandblade.com/forum/threads/did-gillette-techs-come-in-an-open-comb-version.493207/post-8311699 The NOS ones in that post are the early 60s where the OC plate is still the 50s style. The razor in the original post in this thread is with the later 60s style plate (see the notches).I wasn't sure they made and sold them with Gillette Caps, I only remember seeing them with the etched Nacet and Minora caps but I'm not an expert on these.
Prego.Thank you very much, my dear friends, for all the information and kindness in this conversation.
Cheers!
Thank you very much for the valuable tip, my dear friend.One observation is your deal, is not DEAL, (AKA HECK NO) what a TECH, post ads in Wanted For Sale, Trade Section of Forum, someone has one reasonable.
