"Why do people collect these old Gems?" Because they're crazy.
"Do you shave with them?" Only crazy people.
"Are they increasing in value?" No, they're cheap because only contrary, crazy coots use them.
"Saw a few yesterday at some junk shops but didn't bite on any of 'em because I didn't have enough knowledge to know the value." Offer t'ree-fiddy and the proprietor will probably accede after awhile because nobody else has ever bought one of the damned things.
I haven't shaved with this one yet, but I will try it. It takes modern blades, and I'm a sucker for a challenge. I shave with SE Gems regularly. I like the shave, especially the Open Comb Micro Matic. If you have never driven one, give one a spin.
