    Hey, seems fair to me. Only $12.75 for shipping too! :rolleyes:

    I especially like the bottom of the auction. For $25,000 you'd think he could take his form template and change the word "shirt" to "razor." :D

    I love me some razors but DAMN! $25K sure sounds a bit steep to me. Wonder if it's shave ready.

    That listing comes up now as $249.99, someone must have misplaced a decimal somewhere!

    Yeah, sorry, but even after they fixed the decimal that seems like a lot for a Henckels blade. It's nice, but it's not like there is a collectible case or hardwood scales or anything.

    I think if you buy this razor for that price you will also get an authentic certificate which you can proudly display that says you have too much money.

    I suspect he used the notation standard in Germany and most European countries:
    $249,99 and eBay, not finding a decimal took it to be $24,999.00. I'd say it was a beginner's error, but he's got a lot of listings and more than a few transactions, so I think it was momentary lapse.
