What are you waiting on to arrive...?

I'm Dutch. You see these pop up about as often as Darwin DE, but are nowhere in that pricerange. Fortunately. Pricing is weird as it is anyway. Prices for Walbusch B5 go up and up, yet an Eversharp adjustable slant, of which I've only ever seen one for sale, attracted not a lot of attention on the bay.
As for rarity: the fat handle is the most common of the lot, thin handles not found that often, especially when long screw.

Haven't seen a cracked handle in the wild yet. More often, cases are missing.

 

Numbering depends on case, and a recent discovery has shown that at least in one case modelnumbers were reused for different razors. Very annoying
See https://ossbrocante.wixsite.com/lereschearchive/rasoirs-valencia for a Valencia prototype residing in the Leresche Archives.

 

My wife had to go out of town for a few days, so I am waiting on a cute friend of hers to arrive....ETA 8:00 pm

Yeah, I have become a real low- life.

Picked up another brush to restore .....


Terrible seller pics.

A Bee Hive

Fortunately mine was the only bid.

 

Ok I need to go back to work and leave Ebay alone .......

I had to get this brush because it reminded me of myself ......

it's ugly, it needs help and it wishes it had a new head if hair.

 

Waiting on a stuck in New Orleans Post Office VP LEONHARDY brush. Been there 4 days!

Also a just purchased off the BST board a WOLF WHISKERS Best Badger special custom brush made for Cancer Survivors. Looking forward to that one.

 

brit new rfb,#77 wing tip cap/plate,brit new milady fang cap..

 

Cool vey cool razors Gary!
I'm thinking my fang cap rfb must be mismatched on the ball end handle which I have on mine.

 

Found another Schick Platinum DE..

 

thank you Mike.from what i have researched.fang caps were lady shavers..extra protection..not seen one on a regular handle.also the only gold rfb made,all others were silver.nickel plated.

 

that is awesome.never seen a white one..very cool..

 

Yup...seems I have a fang cap rfb franken-milady

 

..they shave well,so i hear.looking forward to trying mine.will use a gold fat tech handle or ball end one..

 

Thank you Gary. This one also seems to have a metal tto knob where my black one is plastic tto & other difference is the made in West Germany on the case.

 

your black one is rare enough,the white one is very rare today .west german remember..

 

We had a few drinks... I made a nice dinner and then after a short talk she went home. I realized that I need to fix what's wrong with my marriage.

It's time to grow up.
