    Unhappy I am so jealous!

    My Mom bought a 1960 Fat Boy in the case for $7 at a thrift store! I offered to give her triple her money back and she wouldn't sell it to me LOL i ofered to give her what she paid for it to let me shave with it a couple of times and she wouldn't do that either.
    I will take some pics as soon as I get a chance. It is a very nice razor and doesn't look like it has seen much use. Everything works as it should but the adjustment is just a bit clunky when compare to my super adjustable. That may just be the difference in the two razors though this one is the only fat boy I have ever seen in person so I dont have anything to compare it to.

    Someday I will run across a fattie and a slim for a good price when i have the money and will snag them but until them I am so jealous!

    Come on! She's your mom. Doesn't a little guilt or whining work? Or, you could just go over to her house and take it.

    I'm curious, did she buy it for herself or just because it was pretty?

    She bought it because she hasn't seen one in a while and knows they are getting harder to find. She is really a good Mom and I will probably get it someday, but I wanted to at least give it a test drive. She is so lucky with stuff like that.
