Well, I'm officially in. Got a Gillette 1957 3-piece Tech in newish condition. Even has the paper instructions that fit in the head. Paid $26.
I'm feeling very RADish today. Uh oh!

I need to make two minor corrections from my OP. The Tech is 1957 and I paid $26. I went back and looking at my invoice and saw my errors. No big deal but wanted to get the data right.

Welcome, and nice razor. I haven't seen a Goldtone with good plating yet.

I haven't seen a Goldtone with good plating yet.
Should I be concerned with the Gold finish?
Also, I have seen where some don't care for the handle with the ball end. Anyone out there have a comment on this handle style?

Congrats on the sweet Tech. I've got a very old and ugly one and it's still my best shave (at least so far). Works better for me than any of my Superspeeds. The DE89l is fantastic but I love shaving with the vintage razors.
