Who got it - deja vu anyone ? :

[Khay]

No, I didn't bid on this... it was already too much for my pocket way before it ended... nice razor, but way too much - I bet it made the seller happy though :

Heljestrand MK32 on ebay

And I thought the Wade & Butcher's went for high prices

 

[VitosClassic]

That was one damn nice looking CVH! I was a little surprised it went for that much but obviously the buyer thought it worth it.

 

[Wid]

Wow, looks like someone has more money than sense.

 

[GreekGuy]

How utterly ridiculous

 

[paco664]

thats just ridiculous...

 

[Krodor]

Free shipping! Awesome!

"scales are a beautiful natural material"...<koffkoffivoryahem> I like the euphemisms folks use to dodge the word.

 

[Khay]

Maybe a collector that really wanted that NOS MK32 to complete his set ? oh well...

For me, with that amount of "razor allowance" I'd rather be knocking at some custom razor maker's door with a nice order

The seller has no choice. If they list ivory in the description it gets pulled by ebay very quickly

If it was NOS, then why isn't there a box? On a good day, thats a $300 razor, maybe $400 absolute tops

Why is that?

Could have been part of a set. I have seen a lot of the ivory scaled MK's that were in 7 days sets, etc. just a thought...

Why is that?

Import/sale/possession restrictions on ivory without supporting documentation verifying it's legal origin.

 

[cb91710]

$800?

I think "lolwut?" would be appropriate.
Nice blade.
Nice scales.

For $800, I'd be contacting Brian for a custom.

I'm guessing current power ball winner is a straight shaver.

I was watching that but decided agains any bidding a LONG time into it.

Almost 2 of them

 

[cb91710]

Almost 2 of them

He's that "cheap"? I thought his were in the $1200 range with a 2 year waiting list, or am I thinking of a different B&B member?

 

[Wid]

He has two for sale on his site right now that together add up to $800.

 

[blackman]

The seller is actually a B&B member. I've purchased from him before. He's a stand up guy. I'm happy for him.

 

[ridnovir]

*** is all I will say

 

[BakerAndBadger]

Wow, holy cow, that's one sweet razor. Don't know about the price but if you want it bad and you're willing to pay then fair enough. Still, NOS and in ivory - do they come any nicer?
