Open Comb TTO?
- Thread starter tadas
- Start date
Nope... But I did find a Sheraton and senator for under 30 on eBay... They were rough, but polished up to almost brand new... Speaking of new, I don't see anything that the gillette new offers that tto does except for safety
They just released a new one at shave-a-buck. Not sure of the price, but their other razors are very inexpensive.
As was already said, I don't know of any that sell in the $30 range, unless it's something in really rough condition that you are willing to take a chance on. I hadn't seen the OC TTO at Shave A Buck, but if it's a Cadet, the quality is surprisingly good given the price point. I'd be willing to take a flyer on a Cadet TTO OC for $20.
Is there a special reason why you want a TTO OC in this price range? There are plenty of open comb razors you can get in your price range, both vintage and modern, that are wonderful shavers. The Gillette NEW specifically is one of the best shaving Gillette OC's ever produced.
Edit:
Here's the link to the razor at Shave A Buck, and it is a Cadet. I would give it a whirl for $25 if I wanted an open comb TTO. I was impressed with the quality of my Cadet razor for the price they charge. It's really your only option that I am aware of.

There are deals out there if you watch closely. I just picked up this Sheraton on eBay last week for under $70. It was not that clean when I got it but it cleaned up really well.
The Sheraton is a great shaving razor. I bought this one for a backup of the one in my top rotation.

Damn how did I miss the cadet.... Paypal button-->auto buy
It is impossible to miss a Cadet, Shave A Buck has them everyday.
being in the botoc... I now have one on the way
I like the look of that a lot , does anybody know if Shave a buck ships to the uk?It is impossible to miss a Cadet, Shave A Buck has them everyday.
Gillette made the Aristocrat, Sheraton & Senator. I have all three. I got the Senator for less than $30. It needs a replate, but shaves great without it. I will replate it at some point, but I pick when to spend that money. The Sheraton I got for $42 and the Aristocrat for $52.
The Aristocrat has been known to go for less than $30, but those auctions don't last long. For my $52, I got a great shaver that does not need a replate. The Aristocrat takes close & comfortable to a whole new level. If you are patient and persistent, you can find a deal in your price range.

I took a chance and ordered the Cadet model 12 last week, it should arrive soon. For $30 shipped its worth a try. I have heard good things about Cadets quality, although I am a Gillette fan, I'll try one. I'll post a review when I can.
Lol....beard comb! We need more sellers like that on the 'Bay.
Let us know what you think, you might be the first person to use one. I for one like the looks of it.
I don't know if forum rules allow this but eBay item number 131017167871 is a Sheraton with no bent or missing teeth in need of cleaning... It's 70 dollars... It's a decent price... I'd buy it if I didn't already own 2
You can post it as long as its a "Buy it Now" item. It's just live auctions that we're not allowed to post a link to.

Not a bad set, actually. The Old Type has the typical crack in the handle, but it's not near as bad as most you see. I'd grab these myself, but I think I'll pass and pick up one of those Cadet TTO OC's (plus some other stuff, of course!).
That black handled cadet OC TTO would look dope next to my vintage SA's.... hmmmm....
