this is mint, LOL what would be bad? for goodness sake, what are those people doing and for 120.00 for a SLIM wow

 

[BEAR DEN]

Heck I have a couple that must be worth $400-500. Thanks for the info, I'll tell my wife she can go buy some extra jewelry for herself!

Maybe he ment to put 12. that's about what it's worth. A real nice slim should go for about 25-35 35 being really nice, and in a case.

It's never even been used, either! There's just an old Gillette blade in there for the aesthetics.

Skiff free razors go for a lot of money. Previous owner's whiskers add 50% as well.

Along with the vintage crud that Gillette added for display purposes.

You'd think he could have at least scraped some of the bigger whisker chunks out with a toothpick. Ick!

What are you talking about! It's in mint condition, never been used! Those aren't whiskers! They are...um...aesthetically placed imitation whiskers!

And another used-car salesman enters the vintage Gillette market!

And yet another example why the word "mint" should NOT be thrown around lightly.

Ha ha! Check out the buyer questions...

Q: Is the pictured razor the razor that you are describing? Because the pictured razor is far from mint condition and I see rust all over that thing. Perhaps you should re-examine it. Jul-04-09
A: THERE IS NO RUST NADA TELL ME WHERE I SEND YOU PHOTOS I NO RUST AT ALL.

Hahahahhahaha. I acutally laughed out loud when i read the response.

Funny, I just checked the link again. It now appears to have new pics, sans crud. Even with the new pics, it certainly doesn't appear mint.

 

[82R100]

Now it's just corroded and soap scummy.

 

[MrGuy]

OK, I'm lost. What is "skiff"?

 

[Walter Sobchak]

Perhaps that big white curly hair that is so prominent in one of those last photos is pushing up that price.

 

[mmack66]

[MrGuy]

I'd pay $120 for that!

 

[Maher]

oh yes, new pics, this seller really has some issues, I would love to see who is going to snap that bargain LOL

 

[heirkb]

That is a miserable attempt at passing off a somewhat nasty razor for mint...these idiot ebay sellers...

 

[MrGuy]

Some of that green stuff might be mint
