    Default FS: Fat Handled Tech, D1 Toggle, 1916 Single Ring, Krona, Complete Cased Star 1912

    UPDATED PRICES

    OK Gents. I've been hoarding beyond belief, so its time to thin the herd. Sorry my name is only in the first photo, I forgot and added it for the last photo I took. I am not a professional photographer. The lighting in my apartment is so-so, so shiny regions may appear to have plate loss when in actuality they do not. I prefer CONUS, but international considered for additional, actual shipping. Additional pictures/info gladly provided on request. I have tried to be as honest and descriptive as possible.

    First up is a classy no date code Gold Fat Handled Tech. Per B&B guidelines, Very Good condition. Lacquer loss on head, minor plate loss on end of handle and head. In the second photo the light is creating the apparent plate loss, in actuality it is just fine. But as you can see the handle is in fabulous shape. Asking what I paid $17 shipped. Reduced to $15






    Next up is a D1 Gold Toggle. I bought this and have been sitting on it since. It has not been cleaned or used. Honestly, I'm scared to touch it, so it needs to go. It has some minor discolorations on the surface that should clean right off, and the lacquer is visible on the head, but there is no plate loss. (EDIT: Upon closer examination there is the tiniest bit of plate loss on the end of the safety bars) As mentioned, I have not cleaned this, but it should clean up very nicely for whoever buys it. I'm asking $175 shipped with insurance. I know this is on the high side for the BST, so to sweeten the deal I'm throwing in a ~90% full tube of Tom's Mint Shaving Cream. Also, this is a D1, not the more common F variety. Also available without the cream for $160, shipped WITH insurance. Available for $157 with cream, or $150 without cream

    Next I have a 1916 cased single ring, code D343643 . It has the metal case with 2 blade cases. As you can see, the outside of the case could use some cleaning, but the latch works well and while the blade cases have some wear there is still plenty of shine. The head of the razor has significant plate loss, but I wanted to keep this kit original. You could easily swap it out with another head. It has the typical handle crack, but it is small and stabilized (3rd photo). Asking what I paid plus boxed shipping, $80 . Also, this is a little high, but the cases and blade carriers are hard to come by. Price reduced to $75. Now $72

    4th is a Schick Krona. This one has the aluminum knob. It has some scratches on the head and head interior. Also has a small bit of discoloring on the handle. I think its something stuck on the exterior, but I'm not sure.
    Asking $17 shipped. Now $15

    Last is a beautiful Star 1912 with the original case. This kit is complete. It has the cardboard box, cardboard insert, original unopened blade pack, and card suggesting use of Star blades. It doesn't look like it was ever used. You can see the mirror finish on the head. There are 2 small scratches on the bottom of the handle. I tried to capture them in the photo, but they are small and difficult to see. I dont know what condition to call it, so I won't. I'm tempted to say near mint/NOS. But because of the small scratches I won't advertise it as such. I do not know if this was due to manufacturing, someone using it, etc. Asking $45, shipped in a box. Price Reduced to $40

    I know its on the higher side, but it is a 1958 Toggle with extremely limited plate loss. It also comes with the discontinued shaving cream. I know that 175 isn't exactly a steal, but I've tried to price it fairly. If it were my beater toggle, that would be a totally different story. It is a rare and highly desirable razor. I think someone will be very happy with it.

    175 is a fair price, IMHO, not too high and not too low, if it is as described, it is a good fair price for the toggle. Good luck, someone will be very happy

    It is not the idea of buying it or not, members here post objectively for the benefit of other members, he stated his opinion and other members can do the same being positive or negative, nothing personal
