My next purchase will be a Red Tip Super Speed, just wondering what a decent deal would be. Seems i keep getting sniped on eBay on the ones i bid on. Looking for a user grade one. with all plating remaining, no brassing, red tip mostly intact. Doesn't have to gleam, sparkle or shine.

I sniped my uncased red tip for around $20 about a year and a half ago. If you search the completed auctions (http://www.ebay.com/csc/i.html?rt=nc&LH_Complete=1&_nkw=gillette%20red%20tip&_fln=1&_trksid=p3286.c0.m283), you will get an idea of what a red tip may go for present day.

i had no idea you could search completed auctions, thought once they were done they were gone. Thanks!

nice! i am going to give it a day or two, so my wife doesn't accuse me of hoarding when she sees pay pal on the bank statement for the 9th time this week. Thanks!

It may not last that long.

FYI I think the seller is a member here.
