I wonder if anything is in the box?

I asked the seller, and never received a reply. :glare:

I won't find out unless the winner posts here to tell us.

I bid low, but I would have bid higher if there were any detail or more pictures indicating a razor inside that nice blue box... :blink:

Cagey wording, two auction photos but none showing anything in the box, no response from the seller... My money's on a $42 empty box to go with those blade dispensers. The seller's argument is going to be that their auction title meant that the 7 packs and a box is what was offered, and that "Gillette Adjustable Razor" and "Platinum-Plus" were just the names printed on each.

I wouldn't put very good odds on there being more than one or maybe two blades each in each of those dispensers either.

Wouldn't it be a kicker if there was an adjustable in it..

Even if there were, I'm pretty sure that's just a standard Fatboy box, so while it would be a good score to have it complete with the outer box at that price it wouldn't be an unbelievable one.

If there is a Fatboy in the box, it would be a decent score considering the price point the FB's command on the bay.

The sign on the box has a red dot. Nice score for someone if there is a razor in the box.

Be interesting to see his feedback when it is left for this transaction from the buyer.

That would be so sweet if a FB was inside

if there were a Fatboy inside the box then why on earth wouldn't the seller show a picture of it. Giving him the benefit of the doubt, and assuming he's just stupid and thinks people would rather see a box than the razor in the box, why would he then ignore several people asking if there was a razor in that box? I would be shocked if there was anything more than dust inside that box.

I believe the Fat Boy picture on my site is wrong. Itīs a Slim Adjustable box:
