Can anybody point me in the right direction on where to look for Vintage or Used DE razors? I'm a newbie to wet shaving and I'm hooked on starting my own collection of razors! I've looked on EBay & purchased a couple of Vintage Gillettes but I want to expand my places to search for other razors. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Where is the best place to find/buy vintage/used DE razors?

Welcome to B&B..this is the best place according to me and maybe others may agree too BST which stands for Buy Sell Trade .http://badgerandblade.com/vb/forumdisplay.php/11-Shaving-Mall-Buy-Sell-Trade
+1 on the BST.
Welcome to B&B.
Welcome to B&B.
The BST is an amazing resource for the purchase of all things shaving, including vintage razors. I have purchased 3 myself in the last few weeks. The prices and quality have been unbeatable. I spent quite a bit of time on that auction site without anywhere near the success I found I found here. Best of luck in your search.
As they said, BST. You can count on reasonable offers on fine razors and gentlemanly dealings in this community. Out there in the world, keep your eyes open at antique and thrift stores.
Check out antique stores, flea markets, estate sales and even thrift stores.
Go to any antique store there is always somebody that got there before you. They are always tapped out. Flea markets, estate sales and garage sales, maybe. I think the pickers usually hold back what the thrift stores receive.
Welcome to B&B.
Living in Florida or God's awaiting room as you do, I would stop at yard sales and estate sales. I have noted some ebay sellers from your area that seem to have above average finds.
Good hunting.

Thank you guys! Thanks for all the advice on where to go. I went to a fairly large flea market today and found a almost new looking Gillette Tech & a heavy handled DE razor (brass in color) with a comb looking edge. I really don't know what kind/brand it is but I'm going to post pics of it to show if anybody can recognize it. Thanks again!
