The Buddha reckons that there were at least 2 different types of magazines for the Repeater's....The early ones were made by the Repeating Razor Company & the later ones by Eversharp...The differences were only cosmetic, however, and therefore all the repeater's will accept the same magazine...

Just got an Aristocrat off of eBay. I have been wanting one, and it was a decent price. I am also waiting on my most recent Stirling order with lots of bath soaps and some Gatlinburg SS. I also noticed that they had unscented mentholated PSB, so I picked some of this up as well.
Sometimes....I just don't understand USPS: 05:30am: Package arrives in Martinez, CA 07:55am: Sorting complete in San Francisco 08:05am: Out for delivery in San Francisco 08:06am: Arrived at Martinez, CA ......huh?

Picked up a Wilkinson bonded razor. This one was sold in Portugal and maybe I'm delusional but I think the razor is more white than the 'grayish' razors of this model that I've seen before.
After a ton of questions and plenty of contemplating, I finally pulled the trigger and ordered a Merkur 39c. Should be here by Tuesday.....never thought I'd be this excited about buying a razor.
