Soooo, did I score?

[bshep714]

I was in an antique store today and bought a gold Gillette toggle F4 for 4.95 + tax today. The gold is in pretty good condition (at least 90% there) but I'm still cleaning shave crud and whiskers off of it. So did I score? What might this sucker be worth? Anybody want to give me a sawbuck shipped? (jk)

Someone will along shortly to demand pics as proof. If this did indeed happen, then yes...you scored.

I remember this guy on the shaveden who had found a bucket with 250 vintage razor inside his garage. Beat that !

found or bought?....

I'll get a pic tomorrow. I shaved with it tonight so how much it may be worth is academic because I'm keeping it. By far, it's the best razor I've ever shaved with.

That guy was a member here and became rocket man.. I remember seeing that post when I was a lurker..I don't think we will ever see that again. I found a toggle for 15.00 ..How I regret selling it

I was mistaken, it was $4.50 + tax:

An excellent deal it looks to be in very good shape. A pristine one in case went for about 375 on ebay recently, decent user grade ones fetch well north of 100 any day. I wonder what you got for the $3 - a double ring or a red dot fatboy perhaps?

This is where I'm supposed to say, "Sell it to me and you'll double your money" Seriously, even if you count the tax. PM me if .....

Congrats on a great score!
