    The difference between Razor Emporium and Razorplate is $1. I would imagine Reliable Electroplating would be in that same ballpark.

    Waiting for an ATT Atlas R1 with an additional H1 baseplate. I'm on a quest for a really good stainless steel razor. The Barbaros TR is beautiful but too mild for me. I'm looking forward to seeing this one and hopefully the blade exposure will be ideal.

    Original plating, according to the listing, so it would be nickel.

    "...THE HEAD AND HANDLE ARE BRIGHT AND SHINY, THE HANDLE IS SHOWING SOME WEAR

    There are some small age scratches on the head that is too small to show in the pictures..."

    It was in the seller's collection for four years. My guess would be that he found one in even better shape to replace it. It will be arriving soon, probably within the hour, so if the sun's a shining, I'll get a pic or two of it with it's golden brother.

    Here's the promised pic:

    Sunlight wasn't cooperating, as usual.
    Turns out the unusual shine came from being buffed to a fare thee well. Didn't strip any plating, thank goodness, but I prefer to hand polish my razors.

    Hello everyone, congratulations to Ryan, and everyone else on the wonderful acquisitions. Here's my recent score from eBay.

    https://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/262385731633

    I have really cut back on buying anything, but have been doing some trades lately. This ABC set was so reasonable I couldn't pass it up. I watched it since it came out, and I think because it was so tarnished it didn't generate much interest. So I put in a lowball bid, and BINGO! It's not been shipped yet, but within 4 days it will be. I'm doing the happy dance now! Another $60 ABC set! Have a great night!

    PickledNorthern Fabulous, the unicorn

    I will have a Thater 4125/1 3 Band in bulb, and a big box from Stirling waiting for me this week when I get home. I have never tried a Thater, and many say their 3 bands are the absolute top in softness. We shall soon see!

    I'm waiting on a AW Wadsworth SR 6/8 to arrive. I won this one at a great price. It's supposedly shave ready. We'll see! Either way, it should be a great razor. image.png

    Very nice. That razor should polish up like new. The only thing I would be worried about is the top cap. They don't show it in the pictures, so it could be pristine or heavily brassed. Either way, $60 for an ABC set is highway robbery!

    Thanks Ryan, yes, that top cap kind of worried me too, but like you said, at that price I still pretty much stole it.

    Placed an order for some TSD samples. I cant remember what they all were but some are: Brut type, Egyptian Spice, Commando Cocktail, Russian Leather, Asian Plum. Love TSD soaps, and am curious to check out the scent of these ones.

    Unfortunately this one never happened. Guy seemed a bit flakey anyway.
