TRADED! Thanks!

I have a nice black handled super adjustable sitting my my drawer gathering dust. The paint is missing for probably 60% of the numbers. The head shows some light wear and light scratching. The doors open crisply - no lazyness at all. The black handle has a few specks in the paint that you have to look for. I don't know enough to tell you if this is a long or short handle - it sees quite long to me and measures 4".

Based on what I am seeing, I am going to place the trade value for this razor at about $25-$30.

This is a great shaver, not a showpiece. But it's completely solid and will give you years of service. I'm sure it would outlive me. I just don't find the blade angle or whatever to suit me. I was looking for a Merkur slant, but a 40s or 50s ball end tech or 40s SS would be fine too! Or really anything - what do you have?

I have a ball end tech that shaves really well. It has some plating loss on the very top part, but the hadle and lower part of the head are good.

I guess I'm looking for something in the same condition as mine. It's easily in considerably better shape than the other Supers that are going for $30 each. I winder how hard it is to strop that gold off?


I suppose I'm going to have to post a picture. I guess that means I have to get my camera back from my daughter! Which means she has to find it in her room. Yeah.
