20's Old Type Gillette

I saw a vintage 1920's Old Type Gillette in what looks to be good condition. The seller wants like 30 for it, plus like 2.50 or so for shipping. What do you guys think of the price? Does it sound like a fair price, or is it overpriced?

Unless pristine (no handle cracks and no brassing) or with a case, that seems a bit high.

I got two 1920's Old Types from generous fellow B&B members for only about $10 each. Both were in very good condition, ready to use.

It has the case which has seen better days, but it still looks like it is holding up. It looks like there is a small bit of brassing maybe, with the pictures it is hard to tell.

They are pretty common. So look around, see if you can do better. But get one. They are great shavers.

Well this guy has a lot of razors. Would you guys like a link to his stuff?

What about a starting bid of $30 for a ball end Gillette tech on ebay. Even NOS, this seems a little high to start from. Or am I off here?

Never mind, started checking this guys prices versus the bays, and he is way over price. Sometimes 6 times higher than the bay. He wants 65 plus 3 shipping for a '51 Super Speed. He is one crack the bay is like 10 plus shipping.
