The most you've spent

[SteelCity]

I bought the Cobra Classic for $125.

Last year I bought a NOS #66 for $75. (First time I mentioned the price here)
My dream razor used at least 3 times a week.

 

[Chester]

$220 for an adjustable aristocrat, NIB, with tags and unopened blades.

$300.00 on this 1955 President:

 

[Merkur25]

I have a couple that cost me.....

Brit #21 Set bought on the BST for $187

Brit #16 Set bought on the BST for $168

Near Mint New Standard Set bought from a member for less than $100

The best deal I ever got was on a WWI Khaki Set that I bought off the Bay for a measly $6!!! The handle has minor cracks but nothing that is longer than a 1/4 inch. (Pictured in the center)

 

[Stevestan]

$205 for a nice gold Aristocrat.

 

[tominabox1]

Most I've paid is 28 for my 34C but the best deal I've got on a vintage was my $10 H2 Slim that is in amazing shape. Oh AND the case!

 

[Copierguy]

That would be the 195 Gillette.
Price: don't ask.....BTW, did my wife put you up to this?

 

[Tricky46]

I just bought my first razor yesterday from an antique shop. $15 for a Gillette Fatboy (E4 - 1959), in the case.

 

[Uncle Erik]

$245 for a Pils that arrived yesterday. Only one shave so far, but it's a terrific razor.

I'd probably pay $250-$300 for a good Double Ring when one shows up.

My best deal was a near mint Fatboy in a junk store. $7.

 

[Stubblefield]

Best Deal: Aristocrat Jr for about $20.

Highest? HD Rocket for about $70, shipped.

 

[ctakim]

I paid a bit over $200 for a very sweet cased Toggle with papers!

I'll admit I can understand why everyone paid what they did for some of their razors. In great condition, hard to come by, I just don't know if I could do it myself. I might have to do the "Honey do you know what I'd really like for Christmas/birthday/anniversary/etc?" route. Then she'd see how much they were and think I was completely crazy. Even more so then she does now.

 

[Slivovitz]

My initial reaction to what some people have paid for individual razors is "you've got to be kidding". But then, I know exactly how much all the razors I've bought add up to, even though a number were under $5, and most were less than $20. I'm not saying what the total is here, but it's kind of ridiculous to somebody who doesn't share my interests. So my second reaction is "yes, I understand".

100% agree with you!

My birthday is coming up in June...I may have to ask SWMBO for a nice shiny double ring or bulldog!

This above comment is why I am single and I dont have to ask before I spend big bucks on a razor that I want oh so badly. Not saying your situation is a bad thing, I am just happy to be single and not tied down.

May I suggest that a change in perspective may help. Approach an acquisition as an investment not an expense and the idea may sell itself.....

That's what I'm worried about lol.

I'm sure that day is coming.

 

[strat1117]

$130 for a cased rhodium British #22. Well worth it -- it is my favorite shaver.

that would be a nice picture to see.
