WTT: A used once tub of GFT sandlewood + more for good OC TTO Gilette (silver)

[Blade Boy]

I would like to trade a 99% remaining tub of GFT Sandlwood cream and a 150ml tube of The Real Shaving Co. Sensitive Shave2Cream (use once) for a OC TTO Gillette preferably silver in good condition with no bent teeth and no brassing, can sweeten the deal if need be.

I mean no offense, but OC TTOs in Silver are limited to certain British Aristocrats, all of which are worth much more than some cream and are quite uncommon to find. Even if you went with gold plating, you'd be looking at a Sheraton which is still going to be worth more.

IMHO this isn't a terribly realistic trade offer.

Insomniac, his last line "can sweeten the deal if need be" addresses your point

You'd need to sweeten the deal by (guessing from the rarity of these pieces) a few hundred dollars. Basically the soap won't really count for anything. I'm referring to silver plated only.

If OP can settle for gold, the Sheraton is the obvious choice as I think it is the most common OC TTO razor. The Senator is nickle-plated but a bit rarer and tends to cost more.

Also note that if OP has the cash, there's a user-grade #15 (http://www.etsy.com/listing/90566946/gillette-aristocrat-15-safety-razor-made?ref=sr_gallery_1&sref=&ga_search_submit=&ga_search_query=razor+aristocrat&ga_order=date_desc&ga_ship_to=US&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_search_type=vintage&ga_facet=vintage)in Rhodium on Etsy.

Well excuse me Insomniac, I had no idea they were so expensive.
Please disregard this unrealistic trade offer, I am also seeking a R41.

Trying to be helpful with cost approximations, but the last 4 or 5 nice sheratons (gold plate) went for approximately $60 ea on the 'bay. Then figure shipping of between $5-12 for the total.

Thanks skydivemd, yeah It's kinda out of my budget right now, I should have researched it a bit more before posting this.

[insomniac]

What were you looking for, Blade Boy? Just an OC to try, something more aggressive? We can offer suggestions for trades that can be in your budget :)

[Blade Boy]

No I'm good on OC's I just don't have a TTO OC, like I said I should have done my homework before posted this, I have been spending way to much lately anyway, I can live without it, maybe down the road.
