Dave in KY's Videos and Hangout

I played around with a coworkers rolls razor. 
I was unable to get an edge that I was proud of on the dang thing. It shaved ok. 
Curious what your experience will be with this Wilkinson razors Dave.

Great score on that lot Dave!

Great score on that lot Dave!

Thanks Tim !

Regarding the lost purchase, something I wondered: was the seller a collector/hobbyist like us? To have NOS stuff seems unlikely to be an estate sale, unless the person bought/received items and never got around to using them. I guess it is the history that has me intrigued. Any ideas about the lot? The morbid thought was someday my stuff may end up there, as no family members seem to be keen on traditional shaving, and selling it on eBay would get rid of it while making them some money!

Many buy backups for favorite items now. I'm sure some people were similar in the past. Regarding the LOT purchase I have no idea who the original owner was or if they were the sellers. Just happy to get it. The NOS MK-1 Shake Sharp was an individual purchase and NOT in the Lot purchase. The seller of the SS Razor has many collectible fishing lures, folding knives and straights. He may have been surprised by what it went for based on the low starting bid. I paid dearly for it but am happy with it.

ha, you caught my typo! Lot not lost!  Thanks for the noninformation! 

I have been on ebay since '95. Around '98, Dad wanted to convert the basement bedroom that my brother and I had as teens (Grandma's old couch, an old dining table for D&D gaming or model building, 4 freakin' speakers hooked up to Dad's stereo upstairs, and our beds) into his wood shop. So he gathered our stuff and said "take it or it goes out in the trash!"  I had a well played with GI Joe adventure set (the 12" Joe) that had a six-wheeled dune buggy and a helicopter! It had been played with and had I believe 2 broken/missing pieces. We always had to pick up our toys, and often the toys were stored in the boxes they came in. Such was the case with the Adventure of the Mummy set.  There was a shipping label on the box, JC Penney catalog center, and price of $13.99. I posted on eBay, fully explaining this was played with, not new, just a loved toy, hoping to get maybe $50. On the last day, a bidding war took place and it ended up selling for just over $400!!! Dad asked for his $14 bucks back!  I had no clue a used toy could be a collectible.

That's hysterical, I love it

Have a minute now to tell you a funny story. Purple used to be my favorite color when I was a kid and apparently I chewed gum ALL the time. NEVER do now and don't know why. Anyway for a gag gift my stepdad on my wedding day in 1986 gave me a pack of Grape Bubble Yum bubblegum. I stuck it in the fridge of our 1sy place. We moved 7 times I think over the years before we were in Knoxville TN and the pack of gum always made the move to a new fridge. In Knoxville I was telling someone you can sell anything on eBay and to prove it I listed the gum with the story. It sold for over $20 and when I saw other purchases the buyer had made in his history you could see he collected old bubblegum. I repeat, you can sell ANYTHING on eBay

Now that is going too far, as a collector!! Not really, I suppose, my wife was a foodie before it became a thing, and she loves what she calls "nasty good" stuff (aka, junk food!) and would most likely visit a museum of old food!

But selling old Bubble Yum, too good.

Remember Wacky Packages? I don't want to know if they are on the bay, as I hope I wouldn't want to buy them!

Is it OK for normal people to just post here?
Just barge in, like we own the place?

Here’s is an interesting looking piece of equipment.
I’m not nearly into vintage as you are DiKY, but it’s cool.
Don’t know anything about it…
No, I’m not going to pay $215 for an old razor.
