Why buy such razors? Scales maybe?
I have a messed up Bengal I got for $10+5 shipping, awesome condition 1880s-90s horn scales I fully intend to transfer.

Sometimes it can be worth looking at that but I always presume the sellers just have no idea what they're selling beyond "it's old"

I think I’ve surprised some sellers by buying their jacked up razors for the asking price, but only because they didn’t know the scales were ivory.
 
Yea that kind of stuff drives me nuts. If I'm going to spend $100 bucks I will try to educate myself about what I am buying.
on the flip side of that if I was the seller and was going to try to profit $100 off of somebody I would want to do my research on that as well. I would. But some of these prices, geez
 
a couple good ones I have seen on a local auction site, straights are very scarce so sellers unfamiliar - still trying for the equivalent of approx 10-15usd

first the 'well-used' bengall
