I'm wondering if the new paradigm for ordering is affecting sales in the second hand market ? I notice ... or it seems to me .. that Wolfman offerings, on the forums, and on ebay, that would have been snapped up quickly are languishing.

Is this the psychological effect of the google form insuring the end user that all things comes to he who waits ?

It's possible. It's also possible that no one wants to sell now knowing that they'll have to potentially wait years for another one.

If each day's orders averages 5 months I'll not have to worry about mine until 2021 !  Rolleyes  I hope many of them are basic finish, or matte. James will get them out quicker.

Congrats to Mogaert !!

If your calculations are correct, mine should arrive around the return time of Halley's comet.  Cry

And mine would be ready when the earth is a cold, dying husk.

Well there are always those who don't want to sell, but I'm noticing those that do have Wolfman razors up for sale don't make the sale as soon as they used to, if at all, unless the price is 'right.' 

I sold my two .61s last year. Fairly priced and they sold quickly. What I have left will have to wait for the estate sale ... after I'm gone .  Angel

Here is a perfect example ... I cannot believe this is still up for sale. A year ago it probably woudn't have lasted an hour. Great razor at a fair price ;

What's strange is that it's not even much over retail. I'm surprised it's still available also.

I’ve been eyeballing it myself as I find the setup ideal. Still a nice chunk of change to make most pause and seeing an international seller may sway some ...although this gentleman appears to have a great reputation here.
