The whole "your not a gentleman or a member in good standing" if you don't follow certain rules in the wet shaving community seen elsewhere is ridiculous. There actually are no rules.

Some forums are very possessive toward certain artisans like Wolfman or CRSW. These are private businesses that sell a product you now own.

I can't believe it's even brought up.

Actually, I am glad Navarrsky did bring it up.  To me, it shows a cordial respect for our members while not denying him the right to ask what he would like.  Also, I agree with others who suggested that he put it up on the B/S/T here first and see what happens.  If nothing can be arranged between a potential buyer and him then eBay is certainly an option.

Good luck to you with the potential sale. Happy2

It was a very nice and informative post by Navarrsky indeed, especially the paid taxes + VAT . Helps members when he decides to list it.

I was referring to the bigger picture Andrew alluded to with other forum(s) MSRP price requirements when listing items that you own.

You own it. You do whatever you want with it, including selling it at a 300% markup if you so choose. That is the beauty of a free market...the product will sell for what someone is willing to pay.

As alluded to by other members...we don't buy into that nonsense that is so frequently sold elsewhere. You bought and paid for a product, it is now yours to do with as you please. Put it here on the B/S/T for whatever price you are happy with, and I truly wish you the best of luck in your sale.

Unlike other shaving forums, DFS does not try to control every aspect of every transaction. This forum is not a profit machine for an overriding business, so we don't have to deal with overbearing and heavy-handed rules to prevent profit loss...

I would ask for $735 personally. Give or take a dollar.

Today I received a Mastro Livi loom strop:

[Image: 32987727995_4df8a9c41d_h.jpg]

And now what I speak about! The strop is 150 euros + 50 euros shipping +12 euros Handling fee and credit allocation + 2 euros Maman charges + 7 euros Customs Fees + 28 euros Customs tax before VAT + 3 euros VAT.
TOTAL: = 52 euros fees and taxes.

The strop costs me 252 euros. There is such mathematics...

Sounds like you're getting ripped off big time each and every step of the way. You paid 50 alone for shipping?

It's mind boggling your 150 strop cost 252 total just to get to you.
