Not open for further replies.
Well here it is gentlemen and ladies; after two weeks of cleaning, cataloging and deciding what to keep, I present to you a portion of the (The Razor Motherload!).
I promised my bride I would only keep a couple and I am keeping my word.

I will post more razors in two weeks
.

Shipping: $3 for a single razor
$4 for a cased razor

If you buy more than one razor, shipping will be actual cost (USPS First Class or Priority, whichever is less expensive.

***I will ship international at actual cost, but I will not be responsible for lost shipments or shipments held up in customs. I will provide an image of the international shipping ticket after it has shipped. So far I have had no issues with international shipping.


***Buy the whole lot for $477 + actual shipping cost and I will donate 10% ($47) in your name as a contributor***

PM sent to you.
 
If you have not heard from me yet, fear not. I am speaking at a friends Memorial Service, celebrating his life even as we grieve the loss of his presence. He loved a good close shave.

I will respond to all unanswered PM's and update the list in about an hour.

Thanks for posting this. I showed my wife the pix to convince her that I DO NOT have a razor hoarding problem!

It has been a wild ride! My goal was to offer them at reasonable prices in hopes of quickly find homes, but I will say this, I did not expect things to sell quite this fast. Apparently I hit my target dead center.

As of 3:25pm or 15:25 (PST), this is what remains:

#7 Gold Fat Handle Tech with worn case
#20 Shick Krona with Krona logo, small flea bites on top
#23 Fraenkel 4 Piece Travel Razor with leather pouch
#24 No name 3 Piece open comb razor - steel cap and base plate with aluminum handle


Thank you you gentlemen for the fun and great transactions. I know some of you did not bag what you were wanting at this time.

Thrilled to be able to share with the community that has shared so much with me for the last year and counting.
IMHO Badger and Blade sets an EXTREMELY high standard for forums that desire to promote gentlemanly/lady like behavior, generosity, respect and encouragement.
Way to go B&B:a14::clap::a50:
